This Friday’s Feature artist is Claire Brewster!
I love the way she combines maps and nature, creating flora and fauna from imagined locations!
From her bio:
Claire uses old and out of date maps and atlases as her fabric with which to create her intricate, delicate and detailed cut outs. Her birds, insects and flowers transcend borders and pass freely between countries.
The cut-outs are pinned either directly on to the wall as a large scale installation or captured in box frames.
The shadows created when light is shined on them gives them a three-dimensional quality and creates a feeling of movement.
