Christian Noelle Charles in new solo exhibition at Glasgow Print Studio Now until May 31st, 2025.

Wait a Minute?!! Glasgow based, New York born artist Christian Noelle Charles explores the complexities of solitude in the Black experience in a new solo exhibition at Glasgow Print Studio. 

An evocative new exhibition, Wait a Minute?!!,  invites viewers to delve into the nuanced experience of solitude, particularly as it pertains to the layered identity of a Black woman in contemporary society.

The exhibition, a powerful reflection piece,

Wait a Minute?!!, poses the fundamental question: "When did you reach your place of solitude?" Through a collection of self-portraiture developed over the past two years, the exhibition explores the delicate tension between isolation and solitude, examining how these experiences shape and inform the multifaceted understanding of being a Black woman today.

Through prints, self-portraits, and installation, Wait a Minute?!!  invites viewers to engage with solitude not as absence, but as presence. It asks: How do we sit with ourselves? What do we find in the stillness? By stepping into this layered environment, viewers are encouraged to pause, witness, wait, and embrace the complexities of solitude as an ongoing journey.

Who also supported in the production of the impactful curtains and the duvet for the show!!!!! THANK YOU PRINT CLAN!!! 💕

Open Tuesday–Saturday, 10am–5:30pm — pop by, see the work, and take home something special. Or Enquire to order here

These pieces aren’t just cute — they’re a support line. I gotta be raw with y’all: the arts is a beautiful but complicated industry. Finding stable work is tough right now. I’ve got some amazing print sales happening (yayyy!!), but the money takes time to process.

So if you’ve got a little to spare, buy a tee (£45), grab a tote (£35) — help this artist survive so she can thrive. Every bit of support keeps the dream (and the rent) alive.

Support independent art. Support artists. Support survival.

Big love always,

Christian aka CC
