    MARGUERITE PIARD

    Portrait-Marguerite_Piard_(c)_Manol-Valtchanov

    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.

    Marguerite Piard, born in 1996 in Rueil-Malmaison, France, is a painter graduated from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2020.
