Claire Foord

​Born in Adelaide, South Australian visual artist Claire Foord, celebrates in her work colour & transformation in a style which is exposed, unpredictable & liberated. Claire draws on the theory of colour and the emotive response to colour used in chromotherapy. Whether abstract or figurative she develops each palate individually and through her artwork explores the context of why and how colours are used.
