Clare Crouchman Maker in Focus:
Clare’s work draws upon the intricate shapes and textures in
5 January – 23 February
and repetitive patterns that repeat themselves naturally on
the landscape for inspiration. She is intrigued by rhythmical both a large and small scale. Clare’s choice of materials and working methods are crucial to the desired outcomes. Ceramic materials go through a series of transformational processes, paralleling those of the natural world, which bring a strong physical dimension to her work. An influence of cities, mapping, mazes and labyrinths is clearly evident within Clare’s ceramics as well as her collographs and etchings.
