About the artist

Claudia Clare trained as a painter at Camberwell School of Art in the 1980s, followed by an apprenticeship with Winchcombe pottery in 1990. She became a regular contributor to Ceramic Review in 1997 and completed a Phd at University of Westminster in 2007. She has exhibited in numerous galleries and museums nationally and was shortlisted for the British Ceramics Biennial Major Award in 2013. In 2019 a major project with women@thewell prompted a growing interest in social and performance collaborations with feminist organisations including Filia International Feminist Conference. In 2023 she had her first international solo exhibition at the Centre for Contemporary Art, Warsaw, and began curating in 2024. Most recently she curated The Real Revolt with Women Create International, 2025. She is the author of ‘Subversive Ceramics,’ (Bloomsbury 2016) and co-wrote ‘The Pot Book’ (Phaidon, 2011) with Edmund de Waal.
