Little history
Mari was born in southern Brazil but grew up in the Capital of Mato Grosso do Sul, Campo Grande. The natural beauty of her country and her culture are sources of inspiration for her work creation. Her connection to nature is noticed in the details of her craft.
She’s graduated in Social Communication-Advertising and has a post-graduation degree in Visual Arts. As a maker, she created the brand MariMaria with a friend, exhibiting and selling their products in various fairs.
She lived in Dublin, where she improved her English and had several experiences that changed her routine such as becoming a fan of yoga and its adaptation to a new diet.
When she decided to listen to her heart, she embarked on a new adventure… moving to Belgium, where she found the love of her life. Having to start all over again, learning a new language, a new culture, making new friends wasn’t easy, yet it was rewarding.
Changes are sometimes necessary to slow things down. Today she lives in a small town called Meeuwen. And it was in this quiet town that she decided to pursue her dreams. Today, with the certainty that she is walking on the right path, she studies and improves her crafts skills. She enjoys seeing the dance of her fingers while weaving the macrame cords and selecting the wood that is part of it.
You are more than welcome to come together and discover this universe that is macrame. Let’s go!
