Cuturi Gallery is delighted to present Hic et Nunc: The Presence of the Void by French artist Marion Charlet (b. 1982). In her first collaboration with the gallery, Charlet unveils a selection of new paintings that exemplify her distinctive approach, where architecture serves as a backdrop for a subtle dialogue between reality and imagination. Through her artworks, she explores constructed spaces, often devoid of human presence, transforming them into contemplative territories where colour plays a central role.
Marion Charlet’s compositions are rooted in her photographs and meticulous iconographic research, which she deconstructs and reinvents with architectural precision and a striking mastery of perspective. Interiors and gardens unfold through rigorous, geometric lines, illuminated by natural light that reveals their subtleties. This contrast between the structured order of the built environment and the organic abundance of nature creates a delicate tension, a captivating visual vibration that evokes wonder and invites contemplation.
