Claire Anderson

Claire is a graduate of Sheridan College, where she pursued the Craft and Design Glass program and discovered her passion for glass. She honed her skills over several years working for established artists before launching her own practice in 2019. Her body of work has evolved over time, consistently exploring themes of feminism, capitalism, and social justice.

In recent years, Claire has expanded her portfolio to include larger, more interactive installations. She has created several outdoor installations and held her first solo exhibition in Montreal. Claire has also participated in numerous juried group exhibitions and has a piece featured in the permanent collection of the Niagara Falls History Museum.
