Charlotte Ngo Suet MUI (b. 1996, Hong Kong) is a London-based artist, writer, art librarian, arts communications professional, and family archivist. Her practice moves between painting, object-making, divination, and archival work, coming together as parts of a sustained inquiry into memory, myth, and cultural inheritance.

Working across her research into decolonisation, art history, and the spiritual practices of a first generation diasporic family, she builds a worldview that treats the personal and the ancestral as inseparable. Her work sits deliberately at the intersection of the illustrative and fine art traditions, drawing on the visual languages of devotional painting, folk art, and decorative arts as equal partners to contemporary artistic practice.

Represented by Alisan Fine Arts (Hong Kong) since 2021, Charlotte held her first solo exhibition Have A Rice Day (2022). Her work was shown internationally at Cromwell Place (London), in 2023, and at Art SG 2024 in Singapore.

Her tarot decks, L’Œil de L’Âme Tarot (2021) and The Gwai Lenormand (2022) are also in the collections of Tate Library, Asia Art Archive, and The College of Psychic Studies.

Charlotte’s professional trajectory is grounded in the preservation of art history. Between 2018 and 2023, she worked as Collections Assistant at Asia Art Archive, Hong Kong. In 2023, she relocated to London, and is currently working as Assistant Librarian and Communications Coordinator for iniva (Institute of International Visual Arts).

What I’m working on right now:

I am currently developing a multi-strand body of work exploring grief rituals, archival practice as devotion, and the Vanitas tradition. Born from the experience of profound loss, diaspora, and the preservation of family micro-histories, this series will be my soft landing and slow reading of life after the death of my mother. The first output will be Have A Rice Day, a recipe zine and artist publication, launching in 2026.
