Revealing the Memory of Matter

A multidisciplinary artist, Marie De Decker draws on the language of fine craftsmanship to
celebrate the living world, weave new narratives and open spaces for contemplation.

Her singular practice brings together gilding, sculpture and installation, image, drawing and performance.

DISCOVER THE PRACTICE

WORKS

Marie De Decker works with materials through a technique of her own invention, drawing on and transforming the craftsmanship of gilding and textiles.

Freed from its support, the gold thread draws in space: without any preliminary sketch, the direct gesture lends the metal an unexpected lightness.
