Marie Jacques

I am a multidisciplinary artist exploring the intersection of landscape, memory, and inner experience. Through painting, photography, pastel, and digital media, my work seeks to capture moments of silence, contemplation, and spiritual presence.

My practice began with observing distant cultures and landscapes, as seen in the series Time Travellers. Over time, my focus shifted toward more symbolic spaces like in the series In the Heart of Myanmar, where landscapes become metaphors for memory and time.

The Garden of Life series invites viewers to slow down, observe, and experience this profound connection between humanity and nature, a coexistence full of poetry, beauty, and meaning. It is a world where the personal meets the universal, and where every detail tells the story of the fragile harmony of life that surrounds us.

My goal is to invite viewers into contemplative spaces where they can pause, reflect, and reconnect with their own inner landscapes.
