Claire
van der Boog

Claire van der Boog is a Franco-Dutch artist based in southern France who creates both two and three dimensional art pieces. Claire graduated in 2011 from the Architectural design department of the The Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam. Since graduating, Claire worked both as an interior architect and as a designer till her interest for the process of experimenting and creating unique pieces pushed her to approach her subject from an artistic angle. Claire has made space her chosen focus for experimentation and conceptualises it through her work, transforming the materiality of a place as well as how it is perceived by the observers. She is inspired by what already exists in order to highlight and create, using subtle and minimalist accents resolutely, new relationships with space and new scale values. Her works then become penetrable, situated within an in-between space in which the objects which, at first glance, are utilitarian, finally reveal a precarious balance.
