I explore the spaces in between as relational zones — fragile, fleeting, and resonant — where togetherness and aloneness unfold in continuous exchange, and where lives, people, time, and matter keep shifting and recombining. My work is driven by curiosity for what resists definition yet shapes our sense of time, presence, and change.

Central to my practice is the act of carrying experience — exploring impermanence, presence, and the fragile tension of searching and guiding at once, releasing and making sense, as it unfolds through the intertwined layers of lived experience: parenthood, mortality, and the shifting positions from which we navigate life.

Painting and spatial installation form the core of my practice, often combined with found materials. Fragmentation, layering, and intuitive searching guide the work, allowing it to dwell in in-between states — moments of uncertainty, transition, and emotional nuance.

Although the work often moves through ephemeral and elusive terrain, it remains grounded in attention to the present: care, responsibility, grief, and the traces we leave behind. It seeks not resolution, but a space for reflection, encounter, and subtle shifts in perception.

Fleur Carlier (1981) is a visual artist and art educator based in Amsterdam. Working across painting and spatial installation, she brings handmade works into dialogue with found materials such as building rubble to explore inner landscapes, material encounters, and shifting experiences of temporality. She earned her Master of Fine Arts from HKU University of the Arts Utrecht (2025) and a Bachelor of Fine Art and Education (2014) from the Breitner Academie (AHK).
