Between colors and scents: the sensitive world of Marie Salamagne

Marie Salamagne composes from precise memories, often predating words. The smells of raw materials, enclosed spaces and everyday gestures shaped her imagination from an early age.

This sensory memory still guides her work. She creates as she would paint, in successive strokes, seeking color balance and the right tension between clarity and depth. Her style favors emotional legibility, with clean structures and sensuality.

She favors controlled contrasts, expressive materials and seamless chords. Each composition seeks to provoke an intimate resonance, faithful to an initial sensation, worked with rigor and sensitivity.
