Claire's plots are set on a grid
with an evasive outline,
avoids dead matter and clear-cut snags,
between an unconscious guide
and a resonant pulse -
a tethered openness. - Drenched Co
Comment: "I entered this exhibition and I immediately saw an abattoir -the sterile space, the hanging carcasses in gushes of blood, bits and organs, the cuts, the slices, the stainless steel. I even smelt the hot, punctured flesh. And funnily enough I felt movement -the artworks somehow on a pause into becoming something else - every object, curve, cut and hue driving some relationship however abstract. Claire's intriguing, hybrid, perfectly sculptured and plotted works transported me to a place I have never been to before. I loved it." - FaSa
