In the arsenal of a British artist Charlotte Mann - one and only color and one and only tool, but to create her amazing work, this minimum is enough for her. An ordinary black marker in talented hands is capable of feats for which Charlotte became famous not only in her homeland, but also in many other foreign countries. Her specialization is Wall art, black and white painting of walls in apartments and offices, a kind of " indoor graffiti". On the white walls of apartments and offices, the artist depicts … apartments and offices. More precisely, furniture, household items, accessories and decorations that we surround ourselves with in everyday life. As a result, even a completely empty room will look habitable, perhaps" cartoonish ", similar to pictures from books or frames of black and white cartoons.
The artist draws the interior decoration of the premises in full size, paying special attention to details. Carefully drawing the smallest objects, she "complements" the existing interior with "virtual" paintings and framed photographs, bookshelves and wall clocks. Suddenly, a cage with a parrot or an aquarium with fish may appear in the apartment, or even a fat fluffy cat, lazily snoring on the drawn window sill near the painted sofa. Painting the walls in rooms, Charlotte Mann becomes an interior designer who lovingly selects furniture and accessories that would ideally match in style and color, and create the very atmosphere in the apartment that is usually called home warmth and coziness.
Of course, when painting walls for offices and restaurants, art galleries and fashion stores, Charlotte Mann sets herself completely different tasks, adhering to her rule: to supplement, not change "reality" with her wall paintings. The list of the artist's completed art projects includes not only drawings on the walls, but also airy, weightless paintings of glass showcases and partitions, as well as the largest mural installations created for the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. All of this can be seen on the Charlotte Mann website.
