Maria Maarbjerg (b. 1986) is a visual artist based in Dublin, working primarily with photography and text. Her practice explores questions of national identity and societal change. A graduate of Fatamorgana – The Danish School of Photography, known for its emphasis on cultivating a unique photographic language, Maarbjerg’s work remains deeply influenced by this school. Her images are distinguished by their sense of composition and form.
Maarbjerg holds a Bachelor (Hons.) in Fine Art from the Dublin School of Creative Arts at Technological University Dublin. In 2020, her graduation piece was awarded with an RDS Visual Art Award, and she has since received multiple awards and residencies, including A4 Sounds Studio’s We Only Want the Earth Studio Residency and the Fire Station Residential Studio Award.
Her work has been exhibited in Denmark and Ireland. In 2022, she presented her solo exhibition, "Ode to Changes," at the RHA in Dublin. Upcoming exhibitions include solo exhibitions at The Complex in June 2025 and The Europa Experience later that year.
Currently, Maarbjerg is a studio artist at The Complex, Dublin.
