Trained as a Graphic Designer at Düsseldorf's School of Decorative Arts (1967-1972),[1][4] she gives up a career in the Advertising industry in 1978 to dedicate herself to her artistic practice.
Abstract painter and militant for women artists recognition in France and abroad,[5][6][7] she was the President of the French women artists' group "Art et Regard des Femmes".[8][9]
Her Work is characterized by clean shapes, strong lines and the invariable use of the black colour. It expresses tensions between forms and the search for equilibrium.[10]
In 1969, Mariette Teisserenc was awarded a Second Prize for Graphic-Design by the company Henkel & Cie GmbH (Düsseldorf, West-Germany), in 1971, a First Prize by the Nordwestdeutsche Austellungsgesellschaft mbH (NOWEA, Messe Düsseldorf) and in 1983, a Silver Medal by the "Bilan de l'Art Contemporain" Foundation (Melun-Almont, France).[1]
In 1996, the Association française d’action artistique (part of the French Foreign Affairs Ministry) and the Ministry for Indigenous Affairs of Quebec awarded the artist with a grant to travel to the Nunavik region and study the use of a ritual knife, the "Ulu", specific to the Inuit women. She exhibited the results of her work in 1998 at Riverin-Arlogos Gallery, Eastman (Canada).[11]
Mariette Teisserenc designed in 2012 the stained glass windows of Saint-Peter and Saint-Paul Church in Brûlon-sur-Sarthe (France).[12]
