Clare Menck
The objects Clare chooses to paint have a characteristic quirkiness to them and speak of a world of personal associations. Clare invites the viewer to explore her inner world in terms of these domestic ‘fetishes’ that she fondles with her paintbrush.
Clare Menck studied Fine Arts at the Universities of Cape Town and Stellenbosch and at the Akademie der Bildenden Kunste, Dresden. South African-born, of German/Dutch (Afrikaans) descent, she lives on the West Coast with her painter husband and two children.
