Marina Cruz (b. 1982, Philippines) is best known for her photo-realist paintings of garments worn by women in her family. Her practice is primarily concerned with the conflicting nature of the painted object and the often-invisible events behind it. By reinterpreting the meaning of materials from the past, she processes the relationship between history and the memories of people lived through those times. Marina has presented more than 30 solo exhibitions in the Philippines, Taiwan, Austria, France, Germany, Singapore, and the United States of America. Her works are held in the collections of institutions such as Taoyuan Museum of Fine Art, Antho-Life Art Foundation, Menarco Vertical Museum and Pinto Art Museum.
