Marjorie Abela is an English artist of Maltese and North African heritage whose practice spans sculpture, drawing, and textile processes. She investigates the physical and emotional language of the body, exploring the sensuality of flesh and the complexities of being.

Marjorie studied painting at the Central School of Art & Design, before continuing her training in pattern cutting and garment construction at the London College of Fashion. An interest in antique millinery fabrics led her to create sculptural headwear and was commissioned by Kenzo for his 1991 catwalk show. She later worked for the couture house Belville Sasson. Her current work draws on both fine art and couture techniques, combining sculptural and textile traditions in an intuitive and materially exploratory practice.
