Stephani Martinez

Stephani Martinez was born in Richmond, CA and now lives in Oakland, CA. Stephani received her BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute. Her work has been exhibited throughout the bay area at venues including Intersection for the Arts, Mission Cultural Center, and the Berkeley Art Center. Stephani’s work reflects her observation of snowflakes, meanders, doilies, spider webs, going round and round in repetition, and the methodical and meditative aspect of women stitching and spiders spinning, waves lapping, wind blowing though grass fields, and the patterns she makes over and over. Stephani is interested in how this connects to her ideas about the feminine and how stories are repeated again and again, through myth and folklore, and how the patterns she creates lead back again to personal memories.
