I spent the summer making moulds, printing 3D objects and cutting foam. I decided that, as well as making the hand grips from start to finish, I wanted to see what happened if I used different materials as well as bronze.
Clare is a London-based artist who makes coloured sculptures. Her practice tackles the dilemmas of 21st century living – technology, consumerism, migration – and how we find compromises to navigate them. Using wood, stainless steel, bronze, concrete, resin, plastic and clay, she sites works in groups or in locations that draw gentle attention to the issue in question. Clare has completed site-specific installations in spaces such as Corbusier’s Unite d’Habitation, Brompton and Norwood Cemeteries, Bishopsgate Square and the Royal Society of Sculptors. She has shown outdoor sculpture at Meadow Arts, Cheeseburn, Hannah Peschar, Contemporary Sculpture Fulmer and in Hengshui City. Solo exhibitions include Art Seen, Nicosia, Unit One WorkshopIGallery, Leighton House Museum, William Benington Gallery, University of Leeds, Studio M74 in Mexico City and and she has shown at the RA, the National Gallery, the Jerwood Space, the RIBA and the Royal Society of Sculptors.
