- Biography
"Marie Denis claims gestures and savoir-faire from another time.
It does not matter if her objects are hand-made or not. What are important in her universe are the anachronism and the oppositions of situations, the way she reconnects with traditional arts and crafts in which she gives a new imaginary technical and formal. The way of associating dexterities outdated to contemporary uses: still life, floral art, but also ironworks, sewing, wicker work, origami which generate as many micro or macro sculptures, objects which enhance daily life with a startling simplicity...”
(Magali GENTET extract from the exhibition Denys-Denis, Denys-Puech Museum / Rodez Winter 2009).
"My practice feed on all the stimulation, strong, irrational and concrete impressions from life. They are for me like an oyster which is making its pearl: an accident that produces enchantment. This is the alchemy that I look for every time. "
