Artist statement
-- Åpent atelier søndag 24.september 2023 --
Charlotte Besuijen is an artist from the Netherlands that lives and works in Bergen. Starting point for her work is the idea that all materials can be used to make art with as well as the idea that artworks are shaped in relation to their environment. In her work she tries to make making processes visible and to reflect on them. Every work carries the traces of earlier states. And every new version of a work can be material for the next one.
