InquireClaire Waters is a South African ceramics artist whose work focuses on the plight of our planet. Drawing inspiration from ancient and indigenous art, as well as the plant and animal life in the world around her, Waters creates exquisite works that feel brilliantly connected to a bygone time. Combining old-world inspiration with fresh exploration, she experiments by making use of materials such as paper, fabric, plant matter, and dung in her clay works which then burn away in the firing process to reveal different and unexpected results.
