About the artist
Rooted in the rich tapestry of Philippine folklore and everyday life, Marie’s work celebrates the beauty of kinship, nature, and collective memory.
Her visual language weaves soft, organic forms with intricate patterns inspired by traditional textiles, echoing the rhythmic grace of t’nalak, obel, and other indigenous weaves.
Through warm, earthy tones and luminous, dreamlike compositions, Marie evokes the sacred harmony between humanity and the natural world, a connection long revered in Filipino myth and spirituality. Her figures often merge with elements of flora, wind, and cloud, embodying the gentle presence of the diwata, the guardian spirits of nature.
At the heart of her practice lies a deep reverence for maternal love and intergenerational bonds.
Blending folklore, femininity, and faith in the unseen, Marie’s work becomes a contemporary reflection of Filipino identity, tender yet powerful, rooted yet timeless, always seeking balance between the spiritual and the earthly.
