Claire Anna Baker

What you see is what you get as far as the quality of five extraordinary abstract paintings by L.A.-based artist Claire Baker is concerned. The materials and elaborate process of the works’ creation remain hidden from view, making the results at first appear matter of fact.... Visceral and transcendent by turns - as the exhibition’s title “SunBody” suggests - these pieces also stand as the culminating step in an alchemical process of distillation and intense direct observation.
