Description

<b>Charlotte Harmer</b>, left a world of society photography and found new life in painting after a season of sorrow. Her still life’s echo the Dutch masters; her landscapes open into great skies. She began painting as a way of meditation informed by her Catholic faith and she aims to work in a way that reflects that. Her work points beyond itself to the transcendent - outwardly the subject may be a humble household object, but her paintings reveal narratives articulated through composition, colour, light and shade. Her paintings become places where the inner light of reality - the thumbprint of the divine creator - can shine through and touch the viewer. In that familiar phrase, they are "thin places”, where the essence of things as they truly are is revealed.” Her work radiates the transformation of grief into quiet splendour. Again, three pieces will hang, three will be sold.
