MARION BENOIT & Maison Merveille

After graduating from Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, Marion delved into various artistic mediums, including photography, ceramics, and painting.

Following her experiences in prominent cities like Wyoming, Düsseldorf, and Buenos Aires, she relocated to the southwest of France, settling in Saint-Vincent-de-Tyrosse. Here, she embarked on an artistic project within her ancestral residence, Merveille.

Regarding her most recent exhibition, "House of Dreamers" at Villa Empain - Fondation Boghossian in Brussels, curator Anne-Laure Lestage remarked, "Marion Benoit draws her creative inspiration from her family's history, which she explores through her archives and everyday life (...). Through the narratives woven into her artwork, she investigates the concept of domesticity in our society, evaluating the role of women and challenging social norms and our perceptions of intimacy."
