Edwige Charlot

info
 
 

Edwige Charlot was born in Paris, France, and lives in Providence, RI. In their practice, Charlot borrows from installation, collage, and printmaking to create hybrid works and lexical visual language.

Plants motifs have become the way means by which they grapple with identity and culture. Plants, each species, rich with its own specificity and distinction, like the cultures of the past and present. Charlot creates a space for something new, a visual creole by blending and mixing mediums and techniques. 

Charlot has received support for their work through St. Botolph Club Foundation Emerging Artist and Maine Arts Commission Good Idea Grant. Charlot received their BFA from the Maine College of Art. Charlot's work has been exhibited in New England, New Jersey, New York, and Oregon, among others. They were a resident at Tides Institute & Museum of Art in Eastport, ME, the Quimby Colony in Portland, ME, and the Vermont Studio Center in Johnson, VT.
