Charlotte Prodger

BIOGRAFIA

BIOGRAPHY

Charlotte Prodger (born 1974) is a Glasgow-based artist who works with moving image, printed image, sculpture and writing, exploring the intertextual relationships between each of these materials. In her work, narrative fragments gleaned from different places and points of her life are presented in parallel in an ongoing enquiry into the contingency and intimacy of materials. Prodger’s installations and performances look at what happens to speech – and the self for which it is a conduit – as it metamorphoses through time, space and technological systems.

Prodger has worked with various deconstructed modes of presentation, including multi-monitor sculptural installations. Recently she has focused on single-channel long-form videos, which have offered an immersive context in which to explore possibilities for more complex relationships between image and sound, and subject and object. Her recent videos BRIDGIT (2017), Passing as a Great Grey Owl (2017), LHB (2017), and Stoneymollan Trail (2015) explore intertwined relationships between queer bodies, landscape, language, technology and time.

Prodger is the winner of the 2018 Turner Prize and the recipient of the 2017 Paul Hamlyn Award. Recent solo exhibitions include Hollybush Gardens, London (2018); Bergen Kunsthall (2017); SculptureCenter, New York (2017); Kunstverein Düsseldorf (2016); Spike Island, Bristol (2015); Temple Bar Gallery, Dublin (2015); Glasgow International (2014); Studio Voltaire, London (2012); and Koppe Astner, Glasgow (2011). Recent group exhibitions and screenings include Turner Prize 2018, Tate Britain, London (2018-19); Always Different, Always the Same, Bundner Kunstmuseum, Chur (2018); Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival (2017); British Art Show 8, Leeds Art Gallery, Inverleith House Edinburgh, Norwich University of the Arts, and Southampton City Art Gallery (2016); Weight of Data, Tate Britain, London (2015); Glasgow Film Festival (2015); London Film Festival (2015); and Markets, Chelsea Space, London (2014). Prodger’s writing has been published in F.R.DAVID, 2HB, Frieze and The Happy Hypocrite.

PROJECT

Lisa Le Feuvre (Executive Director, Holt/Smithson Foundation) has invited artist Charlotte Prodger to join her for the 2019 Curatorial Residency. She is currently researching Nancy Holt’s interest in journeys, systems and landscape, with a particular interest in her moving image work. Holt is an importance reference point for Prodger, and during their time in Rio they will think through what it means to look at Holt’s films today and will present a series of public screenings.
