Carter Flachbarth (b. 1996) received a B.F.A. in painting from SCAD in 2020. The artist's figurative works focus on narrative through an autobiographical lens, often anachronistically predicated on the contemporary experience. Through use of altered perspectives and digitally imposed techniques, his works evoke modern dramas and anxieties set across a vast array of eras and locales. The perspective of the paintings allows the works to communicate on an intimate scale, through the tightly depicted features and crevasses of the figure's hands, and on a heroic scale, with a climactic narrative in line with the tradition of history painting.
Flachbarth has exhibited nationally and internationally, and his work has been featured in The Atlanta Journal Constitution, Forbes and Juxtapoz Magazine, among others.
