Marcel Feve was born in France of North African descent and raised in a multi-generational family of artists. His formal education began at a conservatory where he studied music as a child, before discovering visual art—particularly collage—during adolescence. "I felt fragmented and needed to piece myself together," Feve notes of these early works. "Collaging became a way to navigate my reality." Through art, Feve constructed a space to explore the complexities of gender dysphoria, cultural identity, and adoption.

Feve pursued art and communication studies and relocated to Brooklyn twenty-eight years ago. His practice spans multiple disciplines, including sound compositions. When not in his studio, Feve applies his visual sensibility to visual merchandising and store design, creating displays for MoMA Design Stores' 2012 "Century of the Child: 1900-2000" exhibition windows and designing the Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle popup booth at the Armory Show 2024.

His work continuously evolves through the integration of new techniques and materials. What began as political commentary through sculptures made from concrete and tar collected from his street has expanded into diverse forms. The collage technique that defined his early works remains central to his approach across two- and three-dimensional pieces and musical compositions. Recent explorations include leatherwork alongside his established practice of incorporating sound, textiles, found objects, and urban elements.

Currently, he experiments with digital art and employs AI as a sculpting tool to explore new dimensions in his practice. His work reflects a persistent interest in assembling fragments into cohesive wholes—a process that mirrors his personal journey of integration and self-definition.
