Claire Brewster

The 2008 Chelsea International Fine Art Competition - Collective Exhibition
August 15 - September 4, 2008 Reception: Thursday August 21, 2008 6-8 PM

Press Release

London-based artist Claire Brewster relishes movement and impermanence, exploring subjects commonly considered static that are actually constantly remaking themselves. With insect and bird figures cut out from maps and atlases, Brewster points out the temporary status of nation states, the shifting dimensions of continents and oceans. Lines and shapes naturalized in cartography become strange and arbitrary. Clever titles give a comic edge to her playful creature forms, undermining the self-serious airs that shroud the geopolitical implications of maps.
