À propos

Plasticienne engagée, Mallaurie Charles développe des expositions et ateliers qui mêlent installations, sculpture et médiation culturelle, pour favoriser le dialogue avec tous les publics.

A refined artist’s studio corner with a sturdy, paint-splattered wooden worktable supporting neatly arranged brushes in ceramic jars, glass palettes layered with translucent pigments, and small abstract maquettes in plaster and wire. On the wall above, pinned sketches and color studies form a thoughtful mood board in earthy tones and soft pastels. Gentle afternoon light enters through an unseen window, grazing the surfaces and emphasizing textures of paper, wood, and pigment. Photographic realism with a slightly elevated angle and shallow depth of field, keeping the central workspace in crisp focus while the periphery falls into a soft blur, conveying an atmosphere of quiet concentration and sophisticated creativity.

A minimalist exhibition mediation table in a contemporary gallery, featuring elegantly printed exhibition booklets, a finely bound curatorial essay, and carefully arranged archival photographs of past installations. The table is a smooth, pale oak surface set against a calm, off-white wall with a single, softly lit abstract artwork hanging in the background. Discreet spotlights from the ceiling bathe the table in warm, focused light, creating gentle highlights on the paper edges and subtle shadows. Photographic realism, eye-level straight-on composition with balanced negative space, evoking clarity, intellectual rigor, and the refined atmosphere of cultural mediation and curatorial practice.

A bright, contemporary classroom-like art space prepared for an EAC workshop, with several large, impeccably clean tables arranged in a U-shape, each set with high-quality drawing paper, soft graphite sticks, colored pencils, and small trays of collage materials such as textured paper, fabric scraps, and natural elements. Walls display previous workshop results: sensitive, abstract compositions in cohesive color palettes. Soft, even daylight from tall windows off-frame creates a calm, welcoming luminosity. Photographic realism with a wide-angle, slightly elevated view, sharp focus from foreground to background, conveying an atmosphere of thoughtful pedagogy, accessibility, and sophisticated cultural education without any human presence.

A dimly lit, atmospheric exhibition hall featuring a solo show of large-scale abstract paintings, each spotlighted by precise track lighting that carves luminous rectangles on the deep gray walls. On the polished concrete floor, a subtle reflection of the canvases adds depth. A discreet, minimalist plinth holds a curatorial text printed on thick, tactile paper. The artworks display gestural marks, layered transparencies, and nuanced color gradients from midnight blue to burnt sienna. Photographic realism with a slightly low angle, emphasizing the monumentality of the works, strong contrast between illuminated pieces and surrounding shadows, evoking a sophisticated, immersive, and introspective exhibition experience.

A close-up, photographic realist detail of a textured mixed-media artwork by a contemporary plasticienne, showing layers of hand-torn paper, translucent fabric, and thin washes of pigment partially revealing graphite lines beneath. Fine cracks in dried paint and delicate stitched threads in metallic copper catch soft side light from an unseen studio window. The background falls into smooth blur, isolating the tactile surface. Shot with a macro lens at an oblique angle, the composition emphasizes material richness and subtle color harmonies of cream, slate blue, and rust, creating an intimate, sophisticated mood that highlights the artist’s sensitive approach to materials and form.

A serene atelier shelf arrangement in photographic realism, featuring neatly stacked sketchbooks with textured linen covers, labeled archival boxes, and a row of glass jars filled with pigments in refined, muted hues—ochre, indigo, sienna, and dusty rose. A small, abstract ceramic sculpture in matte white sits slightly off-center, acting as a focal point. Natural overcast light from the left creates a gentle gradient of shadow across the shelf, emphasizing shapes without harsh contrasts. Captured at eye level with a narrow depth of field that keeps the middle section in sharp focus, the atmosphere feels ordered, contemplative, and intellectually sophisticated, suitable for a portfolio’s “about the practice” section.

Services artistiques

A refined flatlay in photographic realism showcasing tools of curatorial research on a dark, matte desk surface: an open, cloth-bound notebook filled with neat diagrammatic exhibition sketches, a printed floor plan with colored annotations, a pair of minimalist acetate glasses, and a carefully arranged selection of small reproduction cards of artworks. A soft, focused desk lamp above casts a warm pool of light at the center, fading to gentle shadow at the edges, with subtle reflections on the glasses. Shot from perfectly overhead with crisp focus and balanced negative space, the mood is analytical yet poetic, evoking the invisible intellectual labor behind exhibition design and cultural mediation.

Médiation culturelle, commissariat d’exposition, expositions personnelles et ateliers, adaptés à tous les niveaux, pour rendre l’art accessible et vivant.

An elegant workshop preparation scene for advanced art mediation, with a single, large sheet of heavy cotton paper laid on a smooth, light concrete table. Surrounding it are precisely placed high-end materials: a porcelain palette with diluted inks, a steel ruler, fine-tipped archival pens, and small envelopes labeled with conceptual prompts. Nearby, abstract reference images printed on matte paper introduce a coherent visual language. Soft morning daylight enters from the right, creating delicate, elongated shadows and a cool, calm brightness. Photographic realism with a three-quarter overhead angle and moderate depth of field, projecting a mood of rigor, subtlety, and thoughtful engagement with contemporary art practices.
