I am Marie Marchandise, a 27 years old photographer and art director living in Toulouse, southern.
France. When I was a child, I wanted to be a poet. Growing up, I was obsessed with being helpful: I wanted to be a vet, a psychologist, and a lawyer. I guess with photography,
I combine the inherent desire for my first dream job as a child, and my inner need and enthusiasm
developed from my teenage years to adulthood.
I love exploring new artistic techniques sometimes that I invent myself, as I
feel that I’m letting my inner child out by doing so, and I hope that what I create allows people to escape,
only for a few minutes. I have been published several times in international magazines, and it is an
honour to know that my work has been seen by many persons from all over the world.
If you feel something when looking at my photographs, it means that my job is done; if you are
inspired, motivated, and looking for something new thanks to them; it’s more than I could ever dream of.

France Malo creates exuberant figurative compositions with an abstract approach to the form that culminates in truly innovative contemporary artworks..." Amsterdam Whitney International Fine Arts, NY USA
"The lines drawn by France Malo cannot be placed in any Cartesian axis. The artist elaborates a signic and chromatic geometry. New visual architectures make their appearance and fascinate the look of the observer, which cannot do anything but look with admiration to the painting of this great interpreter of the contemporary art." Salvatore Russo Art Critic, ITALY

The love of art and the need to express myself through colours and compositions have always accompanied me. Photographs, nature drawings, nude and portrait painting developed while training as a textile and design engineer have helped me develop handwriting that is as precise artistically as it is sound on an artisanal level. Like many artists of the 20th and 21st century, I have turned from figurative painting first to collage and then to abstraction.
How would you describe yourself and your artwork?
Staying fluid with an open mind really helps to reduce my own boundaries and stay flexible in both my life and artwork. I love to research and explore many styles of art from figurative, abstract, contemporary, and traditional. This is intrinsic both in my mindset and range of artwork.
