GUESS
WHAT
HOOPSKIRTS HAVE POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE
The bigger the hoops, the more influential the person. Taking up physical space has always been powerful—especially in a world where political space is limited.
Internationally published artist Perrin Marie is creating a series of hoop skirts and accessories adorned with recycled materials that make noise—not always just a gentle swish swish, but the clink of bottles, the chime of cans, and a whole lot of presence.
Through this work, Perrin empowers self-identifying women, non-binary individuals and others across the gender spectrum to take up space and make HOOPLA (get it?).
PERRIN MARIE
A visual artist with humble beginnings and a grateful future,
Perrin Marie is a self-taught creator, published across continents, working in many mediums—but always from the heart.
Her work lives at the intersection of art, identity, and responsibility.
As an environmentalist, a woman, and a witness to the world, she creates with intention—each piece a prayer, a protest, a possibility.
She began as a muse—an art model—before stepping behind the camera herself.
Her debut show, Art & Body (2021), honored that origin.
In 2022 came Doll House Collection, a bold series of self-portraits in garments made from trash—turning waste into wonder.
In 2023, she became the face of the Australian National Portrait Gallery—an honor as layered as her work.
And in June 2025, she steps into her largest installation yet: HOOPLA.
A celebration. A confrontation.
A chorus of hoop skirts made from discarded materials—moving, ringing, reclaiming space.
Rooted in fashion history, speaking to the now, and built to uplift self-identifying women, non binary people and others across the gender spectrum everywhere.
Because Perrins art is not just seen.
It’s heard. It’s worn.
It takes up space.
And it makes HOOPLA.
