Cora Lee Charpentier

“In Your Case” uses the suitcase form in a fashion similar to that of an antique musical instrument case. It has powder-blue velvet and is hollow in the shape of a body. The poem etched into the lid of the case addresses ideas of closure. The poem proposes the idea of letting someone go by storing their memories in a box.

Bio

I graduated with honors from the University of the Arts in 2004, in the sculpture department. I currently teach ceramics and art classes in the Afterschool program at St. Peter’s School. I work steadily in my studio and I am regularly showing at the Mediallia Gallery in New York City.
