Servane Mary examines the representation of women and feminine identity through a variety of media, including painting, sculpture, photography, and installation. She often appropriates historical images, especially from the mid-20th century, transferring them onto unconventional materials like mylar rescue blankets, silk, and metal to highlight the constructed nature of these portrayals.
