Martha Atienza

Martha Atienza (b. 1981, Manila, Philippines) lives and works in Bantayan Island, Philippines. She has moved between the Netherlands and the Philippines throughout her life.

Atienza’s selected solo exhibitions include Our Islands, Art Basel Statements, Basel, Switzerland (2017); Mind Set Art Center, Taipei, Taiwan (2017); Equation of State, Silverlens, Manila, Philippines (2019) and Free Jazz IV – Geomancers, Singapore Art Week, Singapore (2022).
