Available works and commissions

Bring an original presence into your space.

A curated selection of paintings and sculptures is available for private collectors, designers, art advisors, corporate collections and hospitality spaces. Information, dimensions and acquisition details are provided privately upon request.

Custom commissions can be developed for a specific interior, architectural context or public site. International shipping and project logistics are discussed according to the work and destination.

One or two invitations each year

Private creative residencies.

Charlem can transform a private estate, château, distinctive hotel or heritage property into a living studio. Each residency produces a place-inspired body of work, an agreed artwork for the host, a digital journal and, when desired, a private closing salon.

The family-inclusive format supports a deeper relationship with the territory and a sustained creative presence. Every residency is prepared through a confidential proposal.
