Studio Sale 2023 | Claire Cansick
20 JANUARY 2023 - 07 FEBRUARY 2023Notes
Claire Cansick paints poignant memories, dreams and weather events using colour to translate her emotive response. Beyond Silence is a painting of her beloved River Bure which winds around the place she lives and holds many cherished memories. Claire has used a colour cast of green to explore the skewed reality of memory, while retaining equilibrium.
