About

Multidisciplinary visual artist.

I’m Charleton Mercelina, a multidisciplinary visual artist working across art, design and film. I graduated from the Netherlands Film Academy in 2020, and my professional background spans filmmaking, design, VFX, game art and computer graphics.

I bring a broad visual approach to both my artistic practice and commercial projects. My independent work includes digital experimentation and painting.

My independent work and freelance practice share the same foundation in image-making. This site brings together my artistic work and exhibition history; IVOOK is my professional portfolio for commercial projects.
