Charlie Roberts has always teetered on a sort of surrealism that felt very much his own. And now, in Alien Visions, on view in Oslo, there is a warmth to Charlie’s surrealistic view of the figure and the natural world. They have a presence of being the visualization of hearing a fairy tale or folk tale for the first time, fantastical and of a different realm but with a very human message.
Galleri Golsa is proud to present Alien Visions, Charlie Roberts’ third solo exhibition with the gallery. This new series of oil paintings delves into the intersection of Norwegian culture and surreal imagery, capturing moments from everyday life that are both familiar and unsettling. Through his signature elongated figures and playful distortions, Roberts offers a unique perspective on Scandinavian traditions, blending humor and critique.
