Claire Peters

Claire lives in Dunedin, New Zealand and has graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Dunedin School of Art in 2012. Through her work she explores an inner world of questioning and expression regarding evolution with specific focus on genetics, the human body and its environments. Multiple layers of paint accumulate upon the canvas leaving impressions of their photographic source. Autobiographical in nature these motifs mix, weave and then evolve into new forms and layers that build up the visual image and become memories that reoccur while painting.
