Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings and Orange County Arts & Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the Public Art Review Board, will feature the work of Mär Martinez, an interdisciplinary artist specializing in sculptural painting from February 27th through May 18th, 2023.
The exhibit will be displayed in the Board of County Commissioners Chambers at the Orange County Administration Center in downtown Orlando.
Her work dissects dominance, aggression, and power dynamics through the lens of a culturally enforced binary system. She received a BFA in Painting and a BA in Art History at the University of Central Florida. Of her work, Mär Martinez stated, “Holding Myself Close speaks to a desire to protect the self by turning inward, an act of self-reliance and retreat to the known in times of need.”
