Bonnie Marin’s practice includes painting, sculpture, collage and books. Her work is narrative-based, telling stories of social interactions between people. It comes from a feminist perspective, and often plays with images of gender, religion and nature. Though her work often deals with dark themes, Marin uses humour by combining elements of pop art and surrealism. She has exhibited nationally and internationally and her pieces are held in various public and private collections.
