Claire Brewster | Personal Territories | Geneva



Each year, to celebrate the publication of Interior Design Review, Interior Designer of the Year 2014 Jorge Canete gives carte blance to an artist to stage a temporary exhibition in his home, a Chateau near Geneva in Switzerland. This year Claire Brewster was invited to take part, and the resulting exhibition 'Personal Territories' is now open.

The exhibition invites you to explore the exquisitely ethereal world of Claire's work, whilst also entering the imagination of an eccentric collector.

Claire's artworks, which have been created using vintage maps and metal, present an expression of childhood dreams and memories brought to reality. The creatures on display take on a life of their own in a metaphor for our attempt to control nature, which in fact remains untameable, in a constant display of power and beauty.

The exhibition is open by appointment until December.
