Marianne Eriksen Scott-Hansen is a gifted Copenhagen-based artist who creates enchanting flower bouquets inspired by her childhood in the countryside and Danish folk. She uses tissue paper to make humongous petals and leaves. She says that each masterpiece is handcrafted and done without any patterns or templates.
“Thrift, hard work, and industry are required as well, in order for my artworks to grow into something other than the tissue they were,” the artist told Colossal. “Something must be small before it can be big, humble before it can be flashy—it is the contrast of nature that carries opulence within it and triggers our imagination. In my reworking, the tissue paper roots of the triffid may also become that of the rose.
Scott-Hansen graduated from The School of Design at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, and during her career, she collaborated with famous clients like Elle Denmark, Karl Lagerfeld, and Hermès.
