ABOUT CLAIRE DUNN

Claire Dunn is a multidisciplinary artist, a psychologist and a traveler. She explores the relationship between the human being and art.

For Claire, an artistic expression is a vehicle to connect with our essence and also to different realities. It helps us understand, process and create our world.

Claire’s artistic practice is a timeless ritual, in communion with the exploration of the human experience. She travels around the world and explores spirituality and our connection with the divine through nature and ancient wisdoms. With her tent and sleeping bag in her backpack, she embarks on extreme primitive adventures in the natural environment. Through her art, she seeks to explore the dynamics between spiritualizing matter and materializing the spiritual.

Through different workshops, Claire helps people to go on their journey for healing and reconnecting with their own source of creativity to find their inner truth. What is creative is frequently therapeutic. What is therapeutic is frequently a creative process. Creativity is freedom.
