Galerie XII Paris

Galerie XII Paris is pleased to announce Ravissements, Charlotte Mano’s first solo exhibition in Paris, from June 10 to September 24, 2022.

Winner of the HSBC Prize for Photography in 2020 with the project "Thank You Mum", Charlotte Mano has been pursuing for several years already a prolific work of research and experimentation around the photographic medium. While the essence of the image is to show, the young artist tries to explore new possibilities with a constant concern for invention. Her radical research on the intimate, the dark, on the limits of the medium, on her simple hypersensitive presence in the world are real commitments that she offers to the viewer.

For this first solo show in Paris, Galerie XII has selected a set of works from the series "Portraire" (2016-2017), "Muses" (2017), "Nocturnes" (2017), "Shroud" (2016) and "Mythologies" (2022). These different series are like flows, movements of existence, which we know sometimes painful but which allow him to deploy an undeniable poetic force in the whole of his work.
