BiographyCharlotte Moore was born in Australia and grew up in London where as a child she was a frequent visitor to the British Museum and the National Gallery. She studied fine art at Chelsea School of Art and at Falmouth College of Art. She graduated in 1969 and immediately began teaching painting and ceramics.
In 1989 she emigrated to Australia where she took an art history degree at Queensland University, leading to a special interest in aboriginal art. She travelled widely seeking out examples of the aboriginal carvings that have recently reappeared in her work. Since leaving Australia she has been to India, Tibet and Argentina, Russia and Estonia. She now lives in Bath and exhibits at the Quest Gallery in St James' Street as well as at Piers Feetham Gallery in London. Her current work is about theatre, an abiding theme in many guises. In these pictures the canvas is the stage and the stage the canvas. Contact Charlotte Moore Selected Works
