The bigger the hoops, the more influential the person.
Taking up physical space has always been powerful...especially in a world that so often encourages us to make ourselves smaller.
Internationally published artist Perrin Marie creates hoopskirts and accessories adorned with reclaimed 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.
It's a fashionable revolution.
Through this work, Perrin empowers individuals to take up space, skirt the issues, and make HOOPLA (get it?).
Founder & Creator
Perrin Marie
Perrin Marie is a self-taught internationally published interdisciplinary artist.
Moving between photography, wearable sculpture, and socially engaged art, her practice lives at the intersection of empowerment, identity, and responsibility.
As an environmentalist, a woman, and a witness to the world, she creates with intention –
each piece a prayer, a protest, and a possibility.
She began as a muse – an art model – before stepping behind the camera herself.
Her debut exhibition, Art & Body (2021), honored that origin.
In 2022, Doll House Collection transformed trash into garments and waste into wonder through a bold series of self-portraits.
In 2023, she became the face of the Australian National Portrait Gallery.
In 2025, these threads converged in HOOPLA – Perrin’s most ambitious work to date.
A chorus of hoop skirts made from discarded materials – moving, ringing, and reclaiming space.
Rooted in fashion history, HOOPLA speaks to the present and is built to empower people pushed to the margins.
Because Perrin’s art is not just seen.
It’s heard.
It takes up space.
And it makes HOOPLA.
