These sculptures are some of Claire’s first pieces created specifically as part of a collection of works incorporating colour, and exploring the relationship between form and colour. Claire specifically chose to explore the connotations of a Klein ultramarine shade of Blue for its visual impact and its velvet like texture. Blue has been an iconic colour in art history for its quintessential beauty, conveying meaning and feelings. Blue is actually very rare in nature, only a limited amount of flora and fauna contain blue pigment. It’s rarity and affect on the human psyche has been Idolised assumably since our first interactions with the colour and It has observably shaped art history, adorning some of the most iconic and coveted works of art. Science has assisted in the development of colours, expanding upon the traditional creation methods culminating in this artworks super matte, high pigment paint. These ‘Stack’ sculptures, are not only the vessels of colour, but abstract minimalist pieces exploring gravity defying harmonious compositions. Using the surreal properties of Her signature medium, Claire has sculpted works around balance, not only of the gravitational kind, but also the visual weigh of the piece, and crafting sculptures she felt aesthetically pleasing. These new style of structural, geometrical, rectilinear works emerged from the artist during the pandemic. The artist felt that it resonated with her need to express certainty in a time of uncertainty. Using abstract geometric forms as a contrast to her usual distinctive flowing organic biomorphic works. Claire sought to refine her new artworks in objective compositions of truth and certainty, whilst still being shrouded in abstraction. "I have always been drawn to this colour for its evocative quality but seldom used any colour in my artworks at all preferring them to be a black slate of white where the emphasis is more on the form than the colours connotations. I was heavily inspired to create a series of sculpture in this colour after a visit to Moroccos majorelle gardens, where the stunning hues of ultramarine against the natural flora and during the pandemic I was inspired to try new things. creating a stack series so unlike my usual works and incorporating the colour I most adored"
