SUMMARY:: INNSiDE: Claire Western - 'Echoes of Emotion' : Private View at I
 NNSiDE
DESCRIPTION:Join us on 31st October\, 5pm-7pm at INNSiDE hotel for drinks a
 nd canapes for the launch of 'Echoes of Emotion' by Claire Western.\n\nCl
 aire Western graduated from Margaret Street School of Art\, Birmingham in
  with a degree in Fine Art. In recent years\, Claire has found her paintin
 g practice to be rooted in the combination of music and the natural world.
 \n\nClaire says “I explore and express the interplay of colours and emot
 ions that I hope define my artistic voice. I am inspired by the lines\, ed
 ges and colours that I see when I am out exploring as well as the experien
 ce along the way.\n\nMusic inspires a playfulness in my work\; whether it
 ’s serene sounds of ambient melodies or powerful rock beats\, the emotio
 nal cadence of music shapes the compositions I create. I love to play with
  opacity and layer the colours\, it is almost therapeutic watching this pr
 ocess.\n\nThe outcome has an ambiguity which is most intriguing. This is i
 n complete contrast to the line work which is very purposeful\, rigid and 
 textured which I always add last\, it grounds the work and gives it solidi
 ty and balance. The introduction of the more expressive brush strokes and 
 smaller embellishments is a direct response to the music I listen to durin
 g the creative process.\n\nThis body of work titled ‘Echoes of Emotion
 ’ is an abstract interpretation of the relationship between landscapes a
 nd music. I spend a lot of time outside walking. I am drawn to timeworn an
 d eroded aspects of the outdoors\, rock formations\, potholes and rusty ga
 tes - all reveal a timeline of colours. The relationship between the thick
  textured line work and the flat sweeping areas of colour is crucial to cr
 eating a feeling of playfulness and ambiguity in my work. The landscapes I
  create never portray a recognisable place and this intentional as I want 
 the viewer to experience their own moment of curiosity.”\n\nAll artwork 
 is for sale.\n\nFirst Floor\, INNSiDE by Melia hotel Liverpool\, Old Hall
