http://charlotte-brown.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Cast iron box. I'm reading Freud's "Family Romances" and still thinking about heirlooms, unwanted traits and burdens. Drawings of necklaces. Graphite on paper. Exploring ideas of heirlooms and familial relationships. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Currently working in lead and exploring ideas of inheritances and heirlooms, invested objects and reading Freud.

Charlotte Brown: September 2012

http://charlotte-brown.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html

Undertones of the bodily, of use, of everyday intimacy. They talk about violence and broken families. Estate. Becomes a reference to inheritance of property, possessions, heirlooms passed down through generations. Familiar and domestic, they ask to be used, but the blades bend and poison the food. Their heft belies a softness and vulnerability. Cast, they become generations of themselves, reproduced with failings each time. They sit as relics; fetishes of family life.

Charlotte Brown: March 2013

A Shut in Place. A chest of drawers rendered unopenable, covered in fabric cut and fitted to echo the shape of the furniture underneath. Essentially ‘dressed’ and concealed, it expresses a desire for secrecy. I have become aware of traditions of dressing inanimate objects, thus fetishising them, and how this effects a reverence when encountering the object. Layers of fabric over the furniture’s exterior wood suggests layers of psychology and psychoanalytic uncovering. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
