Biography

Claire attended Sheridan College, taking the Craft and Design Glass program where she discovered her passion for glass. Over time, her series’ and ideas have evolved, however, they continue to revolve around themes of vulnerability, addiction, trauma and feminism. 

 

Claire has accumulated a wide range of knowledge over the span of her career. She has built glassblowing studios, travelled to artist residencies, taught workshops and classes as well as showcased work in Canada and the US. While glass is still her primary obsession, she continues to experiment with different processes and materials to push her ideas and grow as a conceptual artist.
