Claires latest body of work, ‘Duality,’ is an array of conflicting imagery sitting within one space. Things can look perfect on the surface, however often there are secrets hidden beneath which can be seen with the deep history and texture of the old paper she uses as her starting point for many of the works. And by using this type of paper as her canvas it will continue to age much like ourselves.
With these ideas she has been looking at life and death or what’s inherently good or bad in this world and perhaps accepting that all of those things can exist simultaneously. Duality is a love story filled with joy and sadness. For many life itself is a constant reflection of the unknown and where that sits within the here and now. For some that can be religion or spiritually or perhaps it’s aliens? Everyone is experiencing their own story although there can be similarities which can be seen through the use of motifs such as a cactus or an old whiskey bottle that can be almost ritualistic.
With such seemingly heavy subject matter Claire likes to add a playful side to her work with the use of text and collage which confirms the state of two opposing forces balancing ones life.
