Charlotte Gash works with text, sculpture, performance, video and cardboard.
Biography
Charlotte Gash (b. 1994) is a British artist living and working in Vienna (AT). She studied Sculpture BA at Wimbledon College of Arts (UAL, London) and has completed her MA in Performative Kunst (Akademie der Bildender Kunst, Vienna).
Charlotte Gash connects critiques of everyday misogyny and patriarchal behaviour with her experiences in the art world, constructing narratives and counter-narratives that examine the working lives of contemporary artists from a feminist perspective. Working across text, sculpture, performance and video, she uses humour, satire and absurdity—and often cardboard—to challenge stereotypical images of the artist and open up conversations about behaviour and power.
Her practice explores contemporary consciousness by transforming familiar objects and forms of popular culture: everyday items are recreated as cardboard sculptures, while performances and media-based works imitate the conventions of film, theatre, television, mockumentaries and musicals.
Through this interplay of parody and performance, Gash exposes the delicate balance between sincerity and spectacle that defines modern life. Her work has been exhibited internationally since 2018.
