Awash – Charlotte Watson
In Narrm/Melbourne-based artist Charlotte Watson’s new exhibition of ceramic artworks Awash, organic porcelain forms emerge from an intuitive response to making art in the context of new motherhood.
Watson finds beauty and delight within the interplay of weight, selective colour and cast shadows. Gleaming lines eagerly reach for the viewer’s eye over bodies of hand sculpted porcelain. Composed folds and forms hold together, defying gravity.
The complexities of these forms mirror the permeability of Watson’s experiences of pregnancy and raising her new baby girl. Tidal-like movement occurs within each artwork, inviting in, swallowing, emerging, exposing. Surfacing from the wash, Watson presents artworks that are fresh and fundamental.
