About the event
Claire has been exploring Lea Wood, Cromford Canal and the surrounding area for a long time, creating artwork inspired by this. Her work includes photography, cyanotypes, print and altered books. She's been deeply drawn to Aqueduct Cottage for many years, first coming across it as an overgrown, derelict building surrounded by ancient woodland. Her work in the cottage includes many photographs of the cottage and the surrounding landscape.
Claire is based near Belper, in Derbyshire; her artwork is inspired by a lifelong love of the natural world. She works on many different projects and residencies, with a connection to nature feeding into all aspects of her work.
