SCULPTING SURFACES

SCULPTING SURFACES

A duo show with João Freitas, curated by Murmur, at firma Brussels (BE), Autumn 2023

Both artists have a unique approach to exploring and transforming materials. Charlotte uses fabric and threads as a medium for storytelling, while João transforms materials he finds into new realities. They breathe new life and meaning into the materials they work with, introducing new significance that transcends their typical properties and original purpose. By adding or removing layers and altering and shaping the texture, the artists achieve depth in their works.
