Fernanda Martínez is an Oakland-based painter, muralist, and sculptor whose vibrant, expressive work draws from memories and observations of nature. Born and raised in Mexico City, she moved to the Bay Area in 2015, where she has developed an experimental and intuitive practice exploring the emotional depth of color, form, pattern, and texture. Her work spans painting, sculpture, murals, and public art, transforming her distinctive visual language across two- and three-dimensional forms. Martinez has exhibited her paintings and sculptures in galleries and has collaborated on numerous public art projects for businesses, nonprofit organizations, and community-focused and affordable housing developments.
Big Small and Everything In Between is a group exhibition featuring Bay Area artists known for their work in public spaces. Together, their work reveals the range and vitality of Bay Area mural painting today, as well as the ongoing conversation among the street, the studio, and the city.
