For this week`s #artworkoftheweek we are spotlighting `Beyond the Shape of Her` by London based artist Clare Grossman, represented by @‌arcfinearts⁠
⁠
We recently visited Clare at her artist residency at Edinburgh Printmakers, where she was busy preparing new works for our Hampstead Fair, 7–11 May 💓⁠
⁠
“I`m interested in creating work that fuses elements of abstraction with figurative qualities of the female form. A select few life models continually inspire me - their poses and personalities evoke narratives that draw me back, allowing me to reinvent compositions and say something more than originally intended.” ⁠
