Claire Roberts
£0.00
Claire Roberts is an artist printmaker based in Aberdeen, Scotland, creating her work at Peacock print workshop.
Claire’s reductive relief prints feature portraits of enigmatic female characters and are explorations of the conventions of portraiture and traditional concepts of beauty.
Her richly coloured and highly decorative portraits are not of “real” people but are imagined characters inspired from art history, music and film.
Her prints capture moments in time, yet are timeless.
Her women are not passive figures and they may confront or deliberately avoid your gaze.
Claire hopes to question what is hidden and what is revealed about the inner world of her subjects in how they are portrayed to the world.
Claire creates complex reductive relief prints that evolve through the drawing, cutting and multiple layering of colour upon colour.
Claire Roberts is a graduate of Gray’s School of Art, Aberdeen, and The Slade School of Fine Art, London.
She is a Printmakers’ Council and Royal Scottish Academy prize-winning artist and has exhibited widely, both nationally and internationally.
Her work is held in many private collections and in the collections of the Royal Scottish Academy, Robert Gordon University, University College London, Grampian Hospitals Art Trust, NHS Lothian Art Collection and Aberdeen Art Gallery.
