Al van haar kindertijd produceert deze autodidactische kunstenares een continue stroom tekeningen. Ongedwongen, losse pen- en penseelstreken kenmerken haar werk.
In levendige voorstellingen laat zij regelmatig geschreven boodschappen achter. Wie haar tekeningen bekijkt, voelt zich bijna een voyeur: zo dicht naderen we deze intieme wereld van diepe emoties over geloof, familie en angst. Ook meer triviale onderwerpen, zoals een bezoek aan het zwembad of het eten van erwtensoep of gebak, vertrouwt zij aan het papier toe.
Dit ongedwongen en persoonlijk oeuvre kan met recht gerekend worden tot de Outsider art.
English Version.
Marianne (1965) was born with disabilities: she is deaf and cannot talk and is slightly handicapted. she comunicates through writing and regardless of her disabilities she is an independent young women who knows what she wants! From a very early age her family discovered she had a talent for drawing and encouraged her to take part in drawing lessons which she did. Her drawings have the following themes: * religion * maps * images combining her past and present expierences. She often adds writing to her drawings and her observations are very interesting for us, the viewer. Marianne appears not to notice her surroundings but that is not so at all. Within a few seconds she has a picture in her head and draws it the following day with great detail. She combines our contempory world with her own past experiences. For example: one day she may observe a building being demolished. She will subsequently depict that observation as she saw it but will interweave another experience from her past amongst the drawing. In this case she writes about a hospital being demolished during the1970's Her drawings are silent witness of a remarkable outsider artist.
