Marion Perlet is a Munich-born, naturalized Canadian who has made San Miguel, Mexico her home since 1992. She studied painting at the École de Beaux Arts in Montréal, Canada. Since her first exhibition in Montreal at the age of 22 she has had over forty solo shows in Canada and Mexico. Her most recent shows were at the Canadian Embassy in México City, El Instituto Allende and Bellas Artes in San Miguel de Allende and the Museo Iconografico del Quijote in Guanajuato. Marion’s paintings range from naïve representations of great charm and simplicity to visceral symbolist works that tap the deeper eastern religions and the mysterious nature of the creative process. Whether her canvasses are small and delicate or large and powerful, they are always marked by rich colour and vibrant texture.
