Charlotte Blood
About
Charlotte Blood is a London based Artist set to graduate from the RCA Sculpture MA in 2024. Her practise encompasses drawing and sculpture, often using collected or discarded objects within the formation of her work.
She specialised in resin casting when working in fabrication and has a background in Architectural Model Making, which she took up after studying Civil Engineering for her BEng.
Charlotte uses her work to examine the shape of thinking, to construct outside the mind the scaffolding of her internal experience. What does the inside of your mind look like?
The visual result of this process is akin to the backstage of a play. The characters she creates in these spaces, miniature and expressive, serve to pose questions around communication.
She views engaging with the liminal – shadows, hair, the surface of water – as an opportunity to examine the flux between different perspectives.
There is a strong connection, and in some cases blurring, between the figures created and the scenes they inhabit.
This relates to an economy of making. The magic of creating something from nothing and the chance to reassess what is valued as nothing.
