About Marmor Paperie

Lucy McGrath is one of just a handful of paper marblers left in the UK. She started Marmor Paperie in 2015 with a mission to breathe new life into this endangered craft. Lucy’s marbling is characterized by a fresh, contemporary colour palette and patterns that celebrate the chaotic qualities of the water base. After winning the Arts Society/Cockpit Arts Award in 2016, Lucy joined craft incubator Cockpit Arts in south London, where she marbles every product by hand. She published her first book, ‘Contemporary Paper Marbling’, in 2019.Read their story
