Claire Buckerfield
Artist Claire Buckerfield is notorious for her experimental drawings and installations. Emphasising vibrant colours, she creates her work using non-traditional materials such as industrial tape and ribbon. Her drawings celebrate the insignificant, the banal and the everyday, drawing inspiration from urban architecture and the spaces people work and live.
Claire's artistic process is deeply intuitive and exploratory. She begins by immersing herself in urban environments, observing the interplay of light, shadow, and colour. She often sketches on-site, capturing the essence of the spaces she encounters. Back in her studio, Claire translates these sketches into larger works, layering industrial tape and ribbon to build texture and depth. This hands-on approach allows her to experiment with form and composition, resulting in dynamic and engaging pieces.
Claire's distinctive visual approach encourages others to view their everyday surroundings from a fresh perspective. Her work has been widely exhibited, both in galleries and as part of public art commissions.
