About Marion Colard

Marion Colard was born in Belgium in 1992. She is a self-taught visual artist with a master degree in visual communication from the IHECS academy (Brussels) in 2015 and worked as an independent artist since 2019.

Marion’s process is field-based and her researchs are on the long term. She is interested in societal and marginal issues in a multidisciplinary visual approach. For several years, she has been working on the themes of anonymity, representation of the invisible. Through photography and poetic approach, often with co-creation workshops, she tries to sublimate the stories of people designated as “on the margins of society”. She seeks to bring out the beauty and strength of those who are forced to build themselves apart. Her aestethic plays with different techniques (photography, painting, writing) in order to multiply the ways of making portrait. She worked in particular with undocumented people in Brussels (2021), refugees crossing the Italian border (France 2020 -2023) and refugee adolescents(2018-2020). Since 2015, she has been working on the situation of women in Roma communities
