Charlotte Keates is known for her paintings of architectural interiors that reflect the utopian ideals and anxieties of the 1960s and 1970s. Her work, influenced by modern architects like Frank Lloyd Wright and Buckminster Fuller, features serene residential landscapes with mid-century motifs such as sleek lines, swimming pools, and palm trees. However, her surrealist perspectives create a sense of disorientation. Keates' atmospheric compositions evoke a dreamlike déjà vu, inviting viewers to explore the empty spaces, reminiscent of an unfamiliar home filled with uncertainty.
