Mary Sarchizian

Mary, also known by her artist name Marza, is an Orthodox misfit who dabbles in iconography and sacred art. She wants to encourage people to see God in places where people assume we can't find Him. She draws inspiration from iconography, anime, graffiti, and street art. As a queer person of faith, she uses my art to take what's been used as a weapon against queer people and turn it into a source of hope and strength and as a form of defiance against people who want to decide where queer people are allowed to belong.
