Triangle France is invited by Mairie du 11e arrondissement de Paris to organize a series of three solo exhibitions within the framework of the program entitled Transmission(s). For the occasion Triangle France asked three young artists from France and abroad to take over the city hall's yard. One after another they will make site-specific productions questioning the place and its history.
Laurie Charles, Triangle France resident in 2012, will be the one to kick off the 2013-2014 Transmission(s) program. She will be followed by Guillaume Gattier and Nicolas Momein.
Laurie Charles was born in 1987, Brussels (BE). She lives and works in Brussels and Paris (FR).
To Laurie Charles every object is an opportunity to lead an in-depth research in which she puts together different elements into a fictional narrative. The work is the outcome of the narrative.
Lying on historical events, popular references or her own history of the place, she unveils « ghosts » that become the protagonists of her work. From a project to another those resurgences get connected to one another in order to form a cosmography in which she is the keystone.
Recent exhibitions: Year 2012, Komplot, Brussels (BE) ; Romantic Duo, Friche la Belle de Mai, Marseilles (FR) ; Trompe le Monde, Ecole supérieure des Beaux Arts des Bordeaux (FR) ; La Force de l’Art (projet parasite d’Olivier Bardin), Grand Palais, Paris (FR).
Transmission(s) is a project initiated by Mairie du 11e, Paris.
