Claire works with kiln-formed glass, using colour and form to create the desired response from her work. She creates contemporary wall pieces, homeware, jewellery and other decorative works and using her own palette of colour, produces a range of tones that make each piece completely unique.

Claire has exhibited both in the UK and USA and work is available to purchase either at exhibition, galleries or to commission. 

 

 

 

Artist Statement

 

I am particularly interested in colour and its relationship with people and their personalities and I represent this through fused glass. My influences are in abstract art specifically the work of Kandinsky, Matisse, Picasso and Mondrian. I use abstract form with colour to evoke an emotion from the viewer. I have always been interested in colour and its effect on the individual. The impact a colour can have on our mood and our wellbeing is immense and I like to use colour and form to create a desired response to my work from the viewer. I find working with glass inspires me; for me it is the perfect medium to reflect and transmit light within a space.
