Since 2014, when she created a huge hand-cut paper backdrop for the ELLE Style Awards in Denmark, she changed course in her artistic career, turning her attention to paper as her chosen medium. Marianne turns paper into voluminous, multi-colored and multi-layered formations shaped as flowers, organic growths and fantastical creatures.

To achieve this riotous expression, she eschews templates or measuring and relies on 3D freehand cutting and draping, finding inspiration in hands-on work with her material. Building upon her slogan from her former Daughters of Style fashion label, she now transforms standard printer paper, tissue paper and other commonplace paper into lush, dream-like artistic objects.
