About Charlotte 4B
French photographer specializing in conceptual photography, Charlotte 4B extends the metaphor of her invisible inner-borders around the subject of transparency in general, and the window in particular.
Living abroad for 13 years, in Spain (2004-2010), in England (2014-2018), and now in Sweden (since 2018), she no longer feels completely French, nor entirely Spanish or British or Swedish, but a bit of a mixture of all of that at the same time. This led her to question the mosaic and ever-changing identities of those who, like her, can feel at home everywhere but no longer really belong anywhere.
She loves light and its shadows, colours and their contrasts, shapes and textures. With these elements within her reach, she takes her photos as she would make a collage: she catches the poetry that is hidden in everyday life and crystallizes it.
In this way, she wishes to convey the idea that a same reality is perceived by anyone in a unique way. The way we look at our own reality is always a choice and it is through photography that she shares her own.
