Marinelly Pinango's artistic practice is rooted in painting and collage. She is based in Atlanta and earned a PhD in Cognitive Linguistics from Universidad Complutense de Madrid in 2013. She is originally from Venezuela and her work is informed by the forced diaspora of Venezuelans, which has been ambiguous, chaotic, and gradual since the 1990s. As an exile and artist she uses abstraction to explore themes related to loss, memory, displacement, and the reconfiguration of identity as one assimilates into a new culture and regains a sense of footing in the world. She has shown and curated exhibitions in Atlanta and New York, and is a 2024 Hambidge Fellow and 2025 Edge Award Finalist.
