About the Work

Clare Celeste brings thousands of hand cut images of flora and fauna together into lush and intricate compositions. Blooming with color, buzzing with insects, and brimming with foliage, the works are visually arresting and captivating.

The images come from natural history archives and most are pre-1900. Newer images are hand painted, photographed, or sourced from creative commons. For all tactile commissions, Clare Celeste’s images are printed on recycled 300 gram acid-free paper and hand cut.

Clare Celeste’s work is intricate and precise. The otherworldly and ethereal nature of the work is achieved through her attention to detail and craftsmanship.

In commissioning her to create two site specific artworks in Perth, Australia, she arrived completely prepared, and worked hard over a compact week to create two unique works. Experienced in the flesh, her works are engaging, and add volumes of vitality to the spaces they encompass. As a professional artist, Clare is supremely organized, punctual, self-sufficient, and eager to create and share through her art.”
