Clare O'Neill Photography

Balancing insight and instinct, Clare O'Neill believes nothing enhances a room like original artwork; believing that art and design go hand in hand. The room changes the way you see the art and the art changes the way you see the room.

 

Photographing in black & white, she prefers to strip the image of color allowing raw emotions and ideas to emerge. The photographs are then sepia toned adding the warmth of a patina, balancing the cold and impersonal feel of the black & white.

 

As a natural extension of her photography, O'Neill has begun to use her images as a starting point to manipulate and create works with a three-dimensional quality. Some images have been painted on canvas, some have been suspended in resin, and some have been altered using a mixed media material consisting of molten beeswax, pigment, and damar varnish.

"Transforming the images gives me the opportunity to add my own range of textural and color possibilities and further explore my version of the image within my own stylized parameters. "
