Claire Oxley
Claire Oxley's work is distinctive through its colour intensity and
rhythmic mark making. Taking inspiration from surrounding landscapes, her starting point is often the passing seasons and wide, changing moods of her East Anglian home. 'I make paintings that chart and describe the seasons, skies, seas, moons, fields, flowers, and foliage of the area: canvases of energy and flux. These works are felt and heard as much as seen, stirring memories and experiences from these vast counties.' She is, above everything, a composer of colour.
A synaesthete (which, in Claire’s case, means that colour and sound are
experienced interchangeably) she uses environment, music and seasonal rhythms as a starting point for many pieces.
Claire exhibits regularly in her home county of Norfolk, in Suffolk, London, and across the UK.
