Claire Baker lives and creates in Lake Albert. She has a wide range of artistic interests drawing on the natural world, her studies of literature and art, and contemporary life.
Her first book of poetry Paua Shells & Paper Clips was published in 2023.
Claire is a passionate promoter of writing and has been conducting Word Play at her local cafĂ© since 2019. She has served as a committee member for Booranga Writers’ Centre, and is an active member in the writing community.
Developing her mixed media skills has been a wonderful way of combining her embroidery knowledge, mark making, book binding and use of ephemera in artworks that comment on global issues as represented in her local area.
