Slight differences in color or dimensions
The shipping company is delayed
Unpaid customers and duties, which are the responsibility of the buyer

Claire Price

Claire grew up in the English countryside, spending much of her time in a corner of her childhood home which was “full of junk,” making things and painting with watercolors from the age of four.

She later read History at Oxford (with a specialism in Mexican society at the time of the conquest) and then moved straight to London to follow her dream to become an artist with no idea quite how to, but “why not!?” She spent a year focusing on bringing a portfolio together and then got accepted to and attended the Royal Drawing School.

She subsequently moved to Oaxaca for a short residency entitled ‘First Food’ to explore food packaging in relation to Oaxaca’s folk and religious art but has now lived in Mexico for seven years and is currently working from a beautiful studio in Santa Maria la Ribera, CDMX.

Claire maintains a playful and joyful approach to her oil paintings, fully embracing kitsch, pink, femininity, girlhood and motherhood (in contrast to monumental, masculine “serious” oil paintings) and therefore questioning why these colors, aesthetics and subject matters have not traditionally been taken seriously in the art world. She incorporates glitter, stickers and plastic pearls to create pieces that belong as much in the world of the markets and papelerias that she frequents as they do in ‘the history of art.’

Claire has exhibited at Salon Acme and Material Art Fair, both in Mexico City.
