Artist Bio

​

Charlotte Bravin Lee is a New York based artist whose oil paintings and mixed media pieces explore her life-long phobia of birds and discomfort around unknown corporeal territories. Charlotte sees her work as a form of exposure therapy and attempts to understand the link between both fears through meticulously rendering each feather, ruffle, crease and fold. Charlotte triggers herself by studying textures found in nature that most find beautiful.  In addition to this series, Charlotte explores her own family dysfunction through a series of portraits of her younger brother and mother inhabiting the same space. Charlotte is currently showing work with Loft Projects at Future Fair and is looking forward to showing at Upstate Art Weekend 2025 at Fox Trot Farm with curator Charlotte Woolf.  She has been in group shows at Botanica Grove and Minnie Park Art Project. In June 2024 Charlotte had her first solo show in Seoul, South Korea with curator, Minnie Park. Charlotte has also had work published in Anodyne Magazine Volume 4. This Summer June 2025 Charlotte is looking forward to doing the ChaNorth Artist Residency.
