Marie Siekmann is a Fashion- and Costume-Designer currently based in Bremen, Germany. She creates abstract design systems to build her collections. The search and valuation of disused clothes and recontextualized textiles is essential in her work. Since 2016 Marie is part of the Vintage-Label Sosh, that interacts with the unused in a faster, more effective and naive way. As a Costume Designer she worked for productions at Theaterdiscounter Berlin, Kampnagel Hamburg and Ringlokschuppen Mülheim an der Ruhr.
