Pat Marino, b.1986 in Plainfield, New Jersey, USA, has led a career shaped by experiences of international social and cultural exploration.

​

Marino's academic experience in Florence, Italy in 2008 immersed him in its rich artistic heritage, vibrant culture and politics, influencing his voice and engendering a lifelong wanderlust that has enriched his artistic practice.

​

In 2016, Marino relocated to Ningbo, Zhejiang, China, embracing the complexities of Chinese culture. The Covid-19 Pandemic, however, displaced him from his home in China, leading to a return to the United States, where he currently resides in the Finger Lakes region of New York.

​

He has exhibited in cities globally, such as Jersey City, New York City, San Diego, Edmonton, Shanghai, Ningbo, and Hangzhou.

 

His work can be found in collections globally: Beijing, Ningbo, Hangzhou, and Shanghai, China; Bali, Indonesia; Los Angeles, Phoenix, Jersey City, and New York, USA; Edmonton and Ontario, Canada; and Seoul, South Korea.
