writer - artist - maker - sounds as claro correcto

Claire Todd is a writer and audio and visual artist. Originally from Leeds, she now lives in the Scottish Borders.  Her work explores the facets of grief, love and loss, and her love and connection to nature through the medium of words, imagery, film, sound and field recording.  Her practice was born following the loss of her father in 2013 and her mother in 2015, where she found an outlet for her grief in creativity. Her work has developed from writing poetry and prose, to performing her writing as spoken word commentaries for a number of self produced films, featuring her own soundscapes. Her soundscapes are created using field recordings, photographed imagery converted to synthesised sounds, and self composed piano pieces. Claire recently began painting abstracts as a further expression of her research into the natural world and our emotional connections, which is a prevailing theme of her work.

Claire has had several works published on Caught by the River.
