MARIE MARSHALL
Statement
Three fundamental elements drive the unique creation of art in Marie Marshall: solitude, yearning, and a profound sense of peace. The intricate mixture of all three influences her artwork, allowing it to convey the contentment that can truly be found in the embrace of solitude or the serenity that comes with surrounding oneself with only a few. Who really needs a large crowd to feel a sense of happiness and fulfillment? The yearning experienced arises from an innate need for companionship, while the deep peace comes from recognising and appreciating the beauty of not having that companionship, ultimately finding joy in one’s own company and in the moments of quiet reflection.
