Claudia Greathead Featured in Artist Profile

Claudia Greathead sees the world around her as distant and unfamiliar. She paints her inner world as a character, nestled inside a container, a flower or a tooth. Her paintings are figuratively loose and gestural, a jarring mix of pastel and murky colours packed onto the canvas with little breathing space.

Greathead spoke to Kevin Wilson in Issue 54 of Artist Profile.
