1968–2019
Nerine Martini was a Sydney-based visual artist creating sculpture, public art, installation and works on paper.
Martini had an interest in working cross-culturally and creating artworks that respond to stories of migration, belonging, displacement, cultural identity and home. Interweaving personal and universal threads, her work poetically expressed concerns for humanity and our shared social and natural environment.
Leaving behind a legacy of public artworks, community inspired projects, sculpture and works on paper, she was an artist with the capacity to work eloquently and professionally across many fields, from her gallery practice to public art.
Martini held two masters degrees from the College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales and was undertaking a PhD at the Sydney College of the Arts, University of Sydney.
