"Deuxième corps" Marguerite Piard: Paris

Marguerite Piard
(b.1996, Rueil-Malmaison, CT) lives and works in Paris, FR.

Marguerite Piard favors non-traditional pictorial mediums such as oval pebbles, irregular wooden boards, cuttlefish bones, etc. Their shapes embrace and amplify the symbolic, precious, and vulnerable dimension of female bodies, which constitute the artist’s preferred theme. In a generous and textured Mediterranean palette, pagan and classical iconographies blend, especially within the image of the shell-sex and water as a magical vehicle enabling introspection.
