Contemplative, emotional yet cheerful, Marie Air is a young photographer living and working in Paris. After working on the stage, the theater remains her main inspiration. The photography is for her a fixed staging, where the emotions can be expressed, where a temporary state of mind can be displayed. Marie’s work originates from her fascination with visions of a traveler, invoking in the viewer a nostalgia for the lost world of innocence. You can visit Marie’s website or follow her Tumblr for more work. (Interview with artist by Artchipel Nov-2012)
