Born between two cultures, I learned to hold opposites at once. That's what I paint – without choosing a side.

Biography
Marina Ogai (b. 1993, Maysky, Kabardino-Balkaria, Russia) has drawn for as long as she can remember, and being an artist was her earliest dream. Her formal training began at the children's art school in Maysky (2005–2010), followed by painting, drawing and composition at Moscow State University of Design and Technology (2010–2016).
Russian by first name and Korean by surname – her great-grandparents emigrated from Korea to Russia – she grew up between two cultures and made that in-between the starting point of her work. More than twelve years as an art director followed, throughout which she never stopped her own practice; that grounding in visual systems and composition continues to shape her painting. In 2018 she moved to South Korea, the homeland of her ancestors, where she continued to paint; she later divided her time between Korea and Bali. By then, painting had moved to the centre of her life.
Marina Ogai held her first solo exhibition, Inaya, in Ubud, Bali, in 2023, and took part in the OPEN ART Barcelona group show in 2022. She was featured in smART Magazine (Toronto) in 2023. Her work is held in private collections across the United States, Europe and Australia.
