Charlotte Moth - Profile |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Since 1999 Charlotte Moth has developed a photographic "Travelogue" that covers an itinerary concerned with a phenomenological reading of architectural spaces. "The 'Travelogue'", the artist writes, "is a constant through being an accumulation of analogue images that reflect my changing experiences of being in places. It looks at Modernist architecture, but is more a study of architectural spaces in the widest sense. I think of recent places that I have photographed, the Bauhaus in Dessau, a house in Bleckede, Germany, the hotel on the Isle of White that had an interior like the Guggenheim Museum, Aby Warburg's house in Hamburg, the shoe rack of an ancient temple in Japan. Time spent taking these photographs has enabled links between historical categories to develop and blur, in this sense the "Travelogue" is an organic thought process, a collage and activity that uncovers the to-ing and fro-ing of image and experience. "A total of 24 hand-printed black and white images from my 'Travelogue' and a voice recorder were put into a box and sent to Maeve Connolly who had agreed to look and talk about them. No further instructions, or information about the origin of the sites within the images were given. I was sent back a recording that became the basis to develop a digital video work consisting not of moving images but the still images that originated from the box. The process with Sadie Murdoch was similar, this time though I was present, I took Sadie's portrait whilst she was talking." Besides these works, Moth shows a new piece - a shimmering green sequined curtain transforms the architecture of the last room of the exhibition into an ambiguous stage set. Covering one entire wall like a screen, its soft and reflecting surface makes the viewers curious about an imagined space behind it. Moth wrote about her first sequined curtain realised for the Schaufenster Düsseldorf in 2009, saying she was reminded of a quote by Alighiero e Boetti, "Behind every surface is a mystery: a hand that might emerge, an image that might be kindled, or a structure that might reveal its image." Moth writes, "To make this work once was not enough. It develops through its transferability and displacement. Using consistent materials, I confront immovability through looking to make something unique to a place, a site. In this sense 'remade' is exactly what it is and what it is not, it becomes a contradiction of terms through a mechanism of displacement." Charlotte Moth (born 1978 in Carshalton, England) lives and works in Paris. She studied at the Kent Institute of Art and Design in Canterbury, at the Slade School of Art, University College in London as well as at the Jan van Eyck Academy in Maastricht.
