Anaïs Charras is born in 1984 in Paris, where she lives and works. Her work deals with this critical moment that everyone faces and the long, winding path that leads to it : an infinitely stretched out period of time separating life from nothingness. She records and observes the transitional elements, allowing them to grow into new clues for future explorations. She mainly uses burin to cut the metal in the most precise way. The artist is looking for movement and spontaneity with a tool that urges slow process and accuracy. The engraved lines are like maps that guide the viewer through the characters stories ; like a sewing thread, it slips, it shies away, come back stronger, almost disappears, like an irregular breath. As a self-taught illustrator for about fifteen years, printmaking completely transformed Anaïs Charras’s practice and became prevalent in her life and creative process. After three years at the Ateliers de la ville de Paris under the supervision of Florence Hinneburg, printmaker, she worked for two years at Sfumato collective workshop then opened her own workshop in 2020. She has been part of numerous international exhibitions (Berlin, London, Paris, Kiev, Beirut, Bilbao…) and won several significant awards among which the Printmaking Today Prize in London in 2021.
