Claire is a non-binary, neurospicy, textile artist. They make socially engaged work using recycled materials, from plastics to old bedsheets. Perimenopause, disability and chronic illness has shaped their recent practice and it has become more and more politicised. Impossible to ignore the roll back of rights and rise of far right groups influencing politics; their work reflects all this.
