Marion Delarue
Marion Delarue graduated with a Master’s degree from the Estonian Academy of Arts in 2012, after studying at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs (Paris) and the Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam), and she has participated in several international residencies.
Delarue explores transformation, blurring the boundaries between authenticity and imitation, nature and artifice. Her pieces question identity and illusion—beads mimicking flesh, hybrid creatures in transition, or headdresses crafted from another’s hair. She recreates natural materials like nacre and agate with uncanny precision, challenging perceptions of the real and the fabricated. Marion’s exploration of the bizarre, folklore, and myth is central to her practice, pushing the boundaries between artifice and nature through technical precision and an ongoing investigation into illusion.
