About the Item
"Overland" features hues of pink, yellow, green, and blue.
Marina Dunbar is inspired by the work of Paul Jenkins and Morris Louis.
“I often think about painting in three dimensions, rather than two,” says Marina. “When engaging with the surface, I am considering how the arrangement and folds of the canvas will influence the composition.” Her process is as rooted in the physical construction of form as it is propelled by the medium’s inherent fluidity.
The title of her exhibition – Fluent Form – refers to the practice of exploring opposing concepts, such as density and fragility, continuity and impermanence, within the same material. As one progression leads to the next, Marina studies the medium without premeditation, remaining sensitive to nuances within her process.
Marina has introduced natural elements such as dry pigments and sand into these paintings. Sand is a physical object, yet its existence is a representation of the passage of time. It is the result of rock erosion, and it is a material that continually assembles into new patterns. In the Buddhist tradition, sand is used to convey beauty and ephemerality through the construction and subsequent destruction of mandalas. Using these themes as anchors of inspiration, the works evoke impressions of dunes, flora, and natural phenomena while departing from a faithful rendering of reality.
Born in 1992 in Minsk, Belarus, Marina obtained her BFA from Columbus State University, Georgia in 2016. She currently resides in Charleston, South Carolina.

Marina Dunbar
Marina Savashynskaya Dunbar is inspired by the works of Paul Jenkins and Morris Louis. She was born in Minsk, Belarus and moved to the United States when she was nine. Based in Charleston, South Carolina, Dunbar graduated with a bachelor's degree in fine arts from Columbus State University. Her relationship with her medium is very physical. The surface of a painting is bent, manipulated and twisted to guide the paint, granting the process a sculptural quality. Through simple gestures of pouring and removing paint, gravity shapes the lines and forms. Her paintings are abstract but the sequential application of color grants her work a narrative component. The beginning and the end can be seen simultaneously. Initial shapes recede into space as they are enveloped by veils of subsequent colors. Marks hovering on top are the finish line. Each emerging form is a response to the last; a visual conversation. Sometimes the result is an echo of contours, at other times it’s a chorus of contradicting movements and marks. The spirit of Dunbar’s paintings fluctuates between improvised movement and controlled intention. Her work is included in many public and private collections.
