After graduating from Duperré National School of Arts in Paris, Corinne Mariaud started working as a portrait and fashion photographer for numerous French magazines (Liberation, Le Monde, Marie-Claire, Marie-France…), before turning to Fine Art photography.Corinne was inspired to become a photographer when discovering the work of the American artist Cindy Sherman. She was also fascinated by the drawings of Robert Longo and the humour of Erwin Wurm. Her work points to a range of literary and artistic influences, and draws from the work of artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Nancy Spero or Kiki Smith who have, in their own ways, questioned the female identity. She also feels deeply inspired by writers such as Virginia Wolf, Susan Sontag, Annie Ermaux, Virginie Despentes and Paul Preciado.
