Making a Mark: Clare Woods
Clare Woods
One of the most important British artists working today on her evolving practice and the tension that runs through works bursting with colour
This episode of Making a Mark explores the work of Clare Woods (b. 1972), the connections between her life and ever evolving practice, which has expanded from painting to works on paper.
We meet Woods in her vast studio where she has recently installed a printing press. Woods discusses the physicality of her practice; the tension, trauma and conflict that runs through her work; and how she comes up with her intriguing artwork titles.
Contributors include founder and gallery co-director, Alan Cristea; writer and former Frieze magazine editor, Jennifer Higgie, who has written about Woods including a contribution to the artist’s first monograph published in 2016; and Simon Wallis, Director of the Hepworth Wakefield, who first exhibited Woods' work in a solo show in 2011. Presented by writer and critic, Charlotte Mullins.
Recorded in February 2024.
