Mariann Scolinos of Hermosa Beach is a post-industrial abstract artist whose work reimagines raw materials into evocative visual language. Using metals, screens, mesh, textiles, and stone, she explores the intersection of decay and renewal, structure and softness. Her layered compositions reflect the influence of urban landscapes and natural erosion, challenging viewers to find beauty in tension and imperfection. Scolinos’ process is both intuitive and physical, embracing the history embedded in each material. Through texture, contrast, and spatial depth, her work transforms industrial remnants into poetic expressions of resilience, memory, and the evolving relationship between humanity and the tenuous environment.
