Caroline de Lannoy (b. 1962, Brussels, Belgium) is an artist living and working in London.
de Lannoy works across painting, drawing, text, sound and video, exploring time, space and perception through a language of abstraction. Throughout her practice, she investigates cultural, social and existential issues and the subsequent acts of recollection. Her series of paintings combines a sensory-affective field of interplay between lines, shapes, colours, punctuation marks and textual elements with a conceptual approach that questions the everyday experiences. She creates compositions that draw upon the spectrum of sensory perception and feelings, and highlight the conversation between the visible and the invisible.
She is a graduate of the Slade School of Fine Art (1993), Central Saint Martins (1991) and the Athens School of Fine Arts (1988).
Her work has been exhibited internationally including solo and group presentations at The Collection Lincoln Museum, La Verrière - Fondation d’entreprise Hermès, The Gallery Grange House, Art In General, Tate Britain, Huddersfield Art Gallery, MASS MoCA, Cheltenham Art Gallery & Museum, Royal Academy, Gallery North, Arnolfini, Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, Whitworth Art Gallery, Sint-Lukas Galerij, Whitstable Biennale, The Mondriaan House, Kettle's Yard, South London Gallery. She has presented her sound work ‘Colour Tale’ at the Clore Auditorium, Tate Britain.
She has completed private and public art commissions worldwide including Hoffmann-La Roche, Switzerland; St George’s Hospital, London; Lift Orchard Park, NHS Primary Health Care Centre, Hull; Huddersfield Library & Art Gallery, among others.
de Lannoy has been an artist in residence at la Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, Stiftung Insel Hombroich Museum in Germany, International Artist in Residence in Guernsey and the Josef & Anni Albers Foundation.
