Clare Mahoney is an artist who specialises in ceramics and printmaking. The inspiration for her work comes from nature, striving to interpret the short-lived beauty and fragility of nature, capturing the image before it fades.

The exploration of colour, pattern and texture is beautifully demonstrated in her handmade ceramics which focus on nature, abstracted imagery and the passage of time. By the process of drawing; mono print and collage she creates wall hung and sculptural ceramics that engage the viewer in a visual journey. 

After completing undergraduate studies at The Glasgow School of Art, she developed her knowledge and specialism, completing an MA at Howard Gardens in Cardiff. She studied at the Baltimore Institute in Maryland and worked with potters in Sanoma California.
