About Claire Harkess
Claire Harkess (b.1970, Ayr) is a Scottish painter whose watercolour practice explores some of the world’s most fragile environments. A graduate of Glasgow School of Art in the early 1990s, Harkess has developed a distinctive practice centred on wildlife, ecology and the delicate balance between survival and vulnerability in the natural world. Through journeys to Antarctica, the Arctic Circle, Outback Australia, St Kilda and the Galápagos Islands, she has immersed herself in landscapes where life exists at the edge, translating these encounters into paintings of extraordinary sensitivity and atmosphere.
