CLAIRE LINDNER – FLAMING WINGS
2025-10-06Claire Lindner’s evocative ceramic creations take the viewer by surprise, blurring the lines between the organic and synthetic, animal and plant life, science and fiction. The sculptures’ sinuous movements and colours seem to transform before our eyes, generating a sense of mystery combined with the awe of discovery. The exhibition Flaming Wings, which follows the solo show hosted in the gallery in 2022, refers to the various dynamic metamorphoses in the French artist’s recent works. The flaming form suggests a shift in typology, where the organic embraces both the plant and animal kingdoms. The colours shift in tone from orange to rust, from purple to green, from yellow to blue. The manipulation of the material and forms, and the porous nature of the surface that softly absorbs light, suggest fluctuations between different periods of growth, decay and stasis: a blazing symbiosis that alludes to transition, the unpredictability of nature and the visionary nature of human creativity.
