About the Item

Charlotte Culot was born in Belgium in 1964 into a family of artists. From childhood, drawing was part of her universe. At the same time as university studies in Archeology and History of art, she discovered photography. Passionate about materials and colors, she embarked on research into walls throughout the world. Her eye was formed and sharpened by this contact: structure of space, chromatic enrichment, a taste for detail leading to abstraction: all these elements were to be the source from which she would draw inspiration for future work as a painter. In 1988, she qualified in Archeology and History of art with a thesis on traditional earth vernacular architecture in West Africa. In 1990, she began to paint. Using mainly brown kraft paper to work on, she rediscovered the gouaches, pigments and pastels from her childhood. Her taste for materials and textures led her onto the technique of collage. In time, color has become “the structural-subjet” space and major theme of her quest. “Subject-object” gradually gives way to “what might probably appear beyond” or the “emerging force” through the bias of color and material. Since 1991, Charlotte Culot has had exhibitions throughout Europe and the United States.
