TRUST by Avy Claire in the Project Space

"“How can we look cleanly, without wanting to find in things what we have been told is there but rather what is simply there? This is the innocent game I propose we play.” - Antoni Tapies, from The Game of Knowing How to Look.

Avy Claire's exhibition revolves around the essence of TRUST, inviting viewers to partake in a playful and innocent exploration of art, free from preconceived notions. Her creative journey commenced by revisiting her flat files, spanning 25-30 years of ideas, seamlessly connecting past concepts with her current works on display. Embracing risks and maintaining an element of surprise, Avy Claire's artwork reflects adventure, organization, and decision-making, resulting in a fresh and captivating artistic experience. Each painting evolves from its predecessor, crafting a continuous story that unveils the very reality of her artistic expression. Amidst the colors and strokes, Avy Claire faces the challenge of trusting her instincts and the creative process itself, an endeavor that lies at the heart of her compelling exhibition.
