‘Life is an individual experience, in which we become somebody for just a moment; to live and to enjoy our dreams, leaving inevitably a trace behind us.’
Charlotte Bracegirdle’s work is based around the subtle traces that we leave behind. When a person no longer occupies a space everything appears different, but visually nothing is altered. Everything looks, smells and feels as it was when that person was there, but the image is not the same despite evidence telling you that it is.
The newest work from Charlotte Bracegirdle A Room in the Palace (seen left) is taken from Las Meninas by Velazquez (seen right), and is the first work Bracegirdle has produced in oils on canvas. It is substantially larger than her other available works, measuring 33 x 37.5 inches. Interestingly Picasso also painted versions of Las Meninas in 1957.
