Marina Matić was born in Belgrade, SFR Yugoslavia. She is a prose and poetry creator who combines various artistic expressions in her work, such as literature, dance, music, and acting. Through the interpretation of her poetry and prose, as well as other literary works, she explores a wide range of themes, including spiritual, love, reflective, philosophical, social, descriptive, elegiac, and erotic.

Her poetry is characterized by a rich blend of lyrical and epic elements. She employs free verse and, like contemporary Serbian and foreign poets, ventures into prose poetry. Her prose covers a diverse range of topics, from philosophical and spiritual introspection to vivid depictions of nature, deep emotional explorations, and freedom of erotic expression, all underscored by profound understanding and empathy for human and natural suffering, as well as compassion for everything that disrupts the harmony of our human and divine garden.

Marina Matić writes short stories and narratives, and her prose is distinguished by the poetic richness embedded within it. Her first poetry book, "Reflection of the Soul," was published in 2007, followed by the second poetry book, "The Glow of Secrets," in 2008. Her third poetry book, titled "Dawn of Joy," was published in 2015. In 2021, IP Prosveta released her fourth book, characterized by Serbian writer Nebojša Ćosić as a mosaic novel, titled "Transformation," as well as the epistolary poetic work "One," created in collaboration with poet and prose writer Igor Tintor. Her prose and poetry have found a place in both domestic and international anthologies and literary collections.

Marina Matić has been a member of the Association of Writers of Serbia since 2007 and the Association of Serbian Writers in the Homeland and the Diaspora (USKOR) since 2008. She continues to create, transcending the limitations of time and space, in her hometown.
