Devotion

Devotion...
Objects that translate the superfluous and unnecessary, the daily life pressure, social hypocrisy and expectation.

From pieces made
to photography
to digital work
to solarple etchings.

This work transports the visitor thru different medium and evolves like our mind…
…from a piece we desire
to an image we create,
from the superfluous object to the unnecessary lie.

Beatrice Carlson

I am a French visual artist and a fashion designer living in Auckland for the last 13 years.

I have “a genetic fashion disorder” with a great grandmother fine linen embroiderer, 2 grandmothers couturieres…and a fashion design diploma in France.

Stories always take shape like collage of photographs on my computer.

As a visual artist, my main medium is Perspex, it allows me to work in large scale with striking colours.
As a Printmaker I create Solarplate Etching. It is a refine medium, very tactile, close to my feelings for textile.

From 2010, I have been creating wearable pieces of Art entering the WOW Awards, “come-back” to fashion in the making.
Those pieces are in a constant move. They evolve thru the different techniques (modern & traditional) and mediums, corresponding to each other to create a more rich and dense narrative.

Every medium and piece are interactive.
From a WOW garment, I create an Etching.
From a piece, I create an artwork, a print that I use in a WOW garment and vice versa.
Each piece communicates to the other, “talks to me” in a constant smooth personal way.
