BIO
Marina Kulow was born and raised in the city of Brest, Belarus. In 2023, she emigrated with her family to Germany.
By education she is a professional academic pianist. She performed with solo programs in Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, Italy, Spain, Austria, France, Germany.
In parallel with her active musical activities, Marina realizes her creative potential as an artist. She developed her professional skills by attending master classes of the Brest watercolor artist Marina Lappo, as well as the famous Russian watercolorist Sergei Temerev.
Starting with the classical genres of academic painting, in the process of experimenting with different materials and deep internal work, Marina came to the understanding that art as a phenomenon is united and the division into types is very conditional.
Thus, since 2022, painting has become a full-fledged activity, which has led to the creation of works aimed at exploring the subjective reality of a person.
In her works, the artist also studies and reinterprets the images of world musical classics, where the main sources of inspiration are the ideas of V.Kandinsky and A.Scriabin.
Marina Kulow continues to give recitals and is involved in the implementation of the Fermata Classica project, which combines a classical concert, exhibition and dialogue into a single whole.
She has participated in several group exhibitions, organized three solo exhibitions and currently continues to improve her skills as an artist. In 2025 her artwork “Exaltation” was selected for participation in the London Art Biennale 2025.
Marina Kulow's works are privately owned in Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Germany, Italy, England, Greece and Taiwan.

ARTIST'S STATEMENT
I explore the multipolarity of the surrounding reality, the connections between the main categories of existence, because the world today is a kind of polyphony of balance and imbalance, identical and global, objective and subjective.
Space and time are a coordinate system within which everything that exists appears, lives and disappears. Music is a temporary art that exists in space. Painting is a spatial art that exists in time. Sound and color are two facets of one whole. One complements the other.
Being a musician by training and an artist by way of thinking, I search for hidden relationships, because one does not exist without the other.
My concept is based primarily on the ideas of A. Scriabin and V. Kandinsky.
My main method is synthesis, searching for the edges of contact between the audible and the visible, the real and the imaginary. My object is music, its subjective interpretation and graphic embodiment.
All these lines, moving in different directions, nevertheless form a complex vertical.
Time loses its linearity, it becomes spatial.
Thus, combining color and sound, lines and objects, various techniques, elements of modern trends in painting and examples of academic classics in music, I explore our inner and outer world, try to understand and accept it in all its contradictions and contrasts and invite the viewer - the listener, together with me, rise above themselves, their habitat into the spheres of higher matters, plunge into the depths of Wheeler’s “wormhole” and see where we come.
The point of no return has been passed, the usual “today” is lost forever, and ahead is a frighteningly uncertain, but exciting “tomorrow”.
