About Me.

Amy Marui is a ceramic and mixed medium artist whose works explore the relationships we have with ourselves, others, and the world. The excavation through these memories takes place using a variety of materials she is drawn to.  

Her figurative works appreciate the beauty of the human form while using it as a vehicle to examine the struggles of mental well-being.

Through her work with clay she constructs bodies that intermingle with each other, creating a conversation with their interactions and the environment. 

​

Working towards open conversations about feeling different, forgiveness, the complexities of relationships, and the importance of support during mental crises is the goal of her art pieces. Dismantling the taboo around these topics using visually softening colors enables a smoother translation of the darker content in her work.

Marui's work appreciates the nuances of the human experience, striving to dismantle stigmas through a visually softened lens. Ultimately, her art invites reflection, empathy, and a deeper understanding of each other.
