Charlotte Greenwood
Cliché-verres (Series)
DESCRIPTION
Medium: cliché-verres, cameraless photographs.
About the Series
Cliché-verres is an ongoing series of cameraless photographs that is a result of the artist searching for ways of working outside of the darkroom — from home — throughout the coronavirus pandemic. Each piece documents her investigation into how traditional art supplies and materials interact and chemically react with household substances.
Artist Statement
I am an environmentally concerned experimental photographer based in the North East of England who works with both analogue and digital mediums. Inspired by organic form, texture and abstraction, my practice explores the unpredictability and uncontrollability of nature, and often looks to find the beauty in destruction. Through my work, I present unseen perspectives of the natural world that offer viewers new ways of seeing and allow them to perceive the micro details within it that are usually invisible to the naked eye. As I work with materials that produce uncertain outcomes, creating each of my pieces is a process of trial and error, where fortunate strokes of serendipity are patiently awaited and errors are embraced.
