About the artist
Chloë’s work has been exhibited internationally with exhibitions in USA, UK, Italy, Israel and Singapore. She has collaborated extensively with artists, musicians, clothing and interior designers on various projects around the world. Working between painting, print, video and installation, her work sits between experience and imagination, and considers the limits of representation in relation to the wholeness of experience. Exploring the fragility of vision and ideas of remixing reality, she reflects on the relationship between individual and collective memory, her identity within space and her forged identity within new spaces.

Chloë was invited by The British High Commission to showcase a series of works from 21 January to 21 May 2019 in an exhibition titled ‘The Fruitfulness of Forgetting’, inspired by Eden Hall, the historical bungalow where her late grandfather was born and currently the residence of the High Commissioner.
