Solo Presentation with the Galerie Noah Klink, Fiac 2019
A series of wall sculptures, or "shelves," that are freed from their function and typical purpose. They become carriers for sensitive phenomena.
For FIAC 2021, Galerie Noah Klink is pleased to present Intrusive Thoughts, a new series of works by Charlotte Dualé.
Dualé’s work channels the spiritual, ephemeral, and sensual qualities of functional structures, transforming them into poetic objects. Her wall-based ceramics mimic elements like language, interior objects, and tools, yet transcend their mundane roles.
Her latest works, resembling shelves, feature deformed surfaces, unserviceable shapes, and cracks—introducing the fantastic into the domestic. Human traces, such as engraved handprints, further blur the line between the everyday and the uncanny.
By detaching these objects from pure functionality, Dualé lets them become carriers of memory, dreams, and trauma. Their varied placement within the fair booth suggests social structures, narratives, and interactions, each piece echoing the others.
