Charlotte Edey is a British artist (b.1992, Manchester) based in London.

Charlotte Edey’s hybrid, multimedia works explore architectures of the interior, both bodily and domestic. Edey combines pastel, embroidery, beadwork, and woodworking to reveal, conceal, and pull viewers through spatial and psychological scenes that are immersive and illusive. Working with materials like glass seed beads, freshwater pearls, and stained glass, the artist creates transfixing surfaces that shimmer and shift with changing light, imbuing her compositions with a slippery, fragmentary quality. With a practice anchored in the language of drawing, mark-making and gesture are explored through extensive hand-embroidery and beading on woven tapestry; relating thread, line and surface. Edey employs found objects and artist frames as narrative devices to blur the boundary between the real and the represented, reconciling divisions between the metaphysical and material, the internal and external.

Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Observer, Financial Times, Autre, Artnet, Elephant, Metal Magazine, Dazed & Elle. Artist commissions include Apple, Miu Miu, The New Yorker and The New York Times. Her work is held in the permanent collections of the Nasher Museum, Durham, North Carolina (USA) and The Royal Collection, London (UK).
