"Leaving a legacy of public artworks and community inspired projects, Nerine Martini was an artist who tapped in universal themes of migration and belonging. Martini had an interest in working cross-culturally and creating artworks that respond to stories of migration, belonging, displacement, cultural identity and home. Interweaving personal and universal threads, her work poetically expressed concerns for humanity and our shared social and natural environments."[1]
