Photo by Marion Lefebvre, Created for The Wing Assignment Jan 2012 Marion Lefebvre was born in Toulouse, France, in 1972. Lives and work between France and England. Studied at L’Ecole Nationale des Beaux Arts and at l’ETPA in Toulouse and at Kent Institute of Art & Design in Maidstone, UK. Her personal work explores man’s inner world, in particular the figure of the ‘Other’. The notions of passage and wilderness are essential to her work. Each new search involves the quest for a passage towards wilderness, seen as our “blind spot”. In this context, she perceives the photographic image as the edge of reality, holding within it the idea of what it cannot reveal: an enigmatic and fearsome off-camera image with an irresistible power of attraction.
