Born in France, Marianne Boutrit completed her studies at the Ecole Nationale Louis Lumière in Paris before moving to Italy. She began her professional career in Florence working in various photographic studios before moving to Milan in the early '90s. There, she opened her own studio specialising in still-life photography for advertising and industrial clients.
Contemporarily, she developed her own personal photographic narration culminating in a continuing series of images entitled Ferite (Wounds) which has led to her presence in various group and personal exhibitions. Her work uses nature as a metaphor for inner tensions, trauma and relationships. Since 1995 Boutrit has been teaching darkroom techniques at the Istituto Europeo di Design in Milan.
