Piece description from the artist
I took this photograph while I was living in South Africa. Every day I was astonished by the extreme, diverse and romantic sunsets that occurred every day, like clockwork. Eventually the images of these sunsets became part of my dreams and eventually became some of the only concrete memories of visiting that place. This photograph is a physical marker of that experience.
Claire Stringer is a Chicago-based artist who uses a variety of materials to study dualism in both personal and cultural life. Through applying her background in Art History, Stringer often responds to the notion of HIGH and LOW art, and GOOD and BAD taste. Focusing mainly in the craft of collage, she blends these divisions to create compositions that convey both tension and synthesis. Often collaborating with artists around the country via mail, her works are embedded with reminders of community and pluralism.
