CLARE_PAYNE

A story of invention and despair, leading to a scene of life and death, delight and horror which capture the living beings desire and passion to resurrect the unspoiled self. A relationship demonstrating seduction and infatuation suspended between reality and the dreamed unknown. A deep love between the creator and his subject exploits the idea of the desperate obsession of generating new life from dead matter. It is an aesthetic full of contrasts and contradictory ideas for the provocative and stimulating woman whose vision is one of precision and perfection. The collection strives to innovate and study the human form and the manner in which it changes and how the mental state of the mind dictates the extreme nature of obsessive behaviour.
