$7.07The Story
Here/There presents a body of work developed since 2020 during the artists time in residence with Abingdon Studios, Blackpool, on the second iteration of their WORK/LEISURE residency.
The sculptures pose questions around object worth, acts of mass production and duality of purpose within a vessel used in both forms of service and for decorative purposes. The series playfully reflects on the form of the dining plate and the many disparate connections associated with the object. Between commemorative and functional, souvenir and ornamental. Rather than ceramic, each plate piece is produced in Jesmonite through a casting process. The material dissociates the plates from functionality to (re) present them as sculpture.
Alongside the plates, Here/There also presents sculptural pieces that reference the service or leisure industries of Blackpool. A series of Puppet Heads re-purposed as tea towel toppers and an embroidery piece memorialising the iconography of Blackpool’s illuminations.
Charlotte Dawson is an artist based in Sheffield. Her practice explores how ordinary objects act as physical harbourers/remnants of experiences. In particular, she is interested in the mass produced and the ways it transcends into the deeply personal. She engages with ideas of the collection and often works in multiple using casting or fabrication.
