Marina was born in Toulon in the South of France and spent part of her childhood in the rich coastal plains of Gabon, before moving to Alsace near the Vosges mountains and then to England.

She studied sculpture at Falmouth School of Art and later did a two-year City and Guilds in ceramics in Nottingham.

He is interested in addressing the relationship we have with the landscape.
