About
Why this artist matters now
Julian Charrière works across photography, sculpture, video, and performance to examine deep time, geology, and the fractured relationship between human activity and the natural world. Born in 1987 and based in Berlin, the French-Swiss artist frequently works in extreme or remote landscapes, treating the environment itself as both subject and material. His photographs and films carry a stark, elemental quality, often presenting sites of geological or industrial transformation at a scale that makes human presence feel both central and negligible.
