Mari Männa (born 1991) is a sculptor and installation artist from Estonia. In her artworks, personal stories are intertwined with broader political narratives. She is interested in the mystical peripheries of consciousness, exploring our daylight hallucinations, fears, and nightmares. Männa consistently engages with contemporary topics in her artwork, while her fascination lies in unravelling the intricacies of the human condition during moments of crisis.

 

Driven by a desire to explore diverse materials and create tangible forms as part of her daily ritual, her sculptural practice can be characterised by embracing trial and error.
