Greg Charlton is a Fredericton-based visual artist who concentrates on themes of transformation and change – via drawings and paintings of architecture and infrastructures, based on place and historical narratives. His practice has encompassed, along with drawing and painting, site-specific interventions, and experiments into perceptual phenomenon.

Greg’s work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and can be found in many private and several public Art collections, including the Canada Council for the Arts, the University of New Brunswick, and the Beaverbrook Art Gallery. He has been awarded project grants from the Canada Council for the Arts, the Ontario Arts Council, and the New Brunswick Arts Board. Greg holds a BFA from the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD U) and presently teaches Drawing and Design at the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design (NBCCD).

“Bridges, on a practical level, offer an opportunity to traverse difficult terrain or bodies of water – a passage from one side to the other. On a metaphorical level, bridges connote a journey, an in-between transitional place. Bridges and pillars are the subject; old, renewed, and sometimes abandoned – a liminal presence in the landscape. These paintings are representations of both space and place – depictions of a moment in time.” -Greg Charlton
