Marie Denis
Born in 1972, lives and works in Paris, France
The practice of Marie Denis focuses first and foremost on an object and how it may potentially be reinvented. Marie Denis' work is also concerned with botanical principles. Her installations and sculptures are designed from raw materials and other objects diverted from their typical anchors in culture.
She likes to circumvent the rules to realize her work, which is often sculptural: a vegetable path that "kaleidoscopes" the idea of nature, its beauty, and fragility.
