About Claren

“I’m a queer multidisciplinary artist. I direct, write plays and poetry, paint and draw, submit a lot of grants and balance a lot of budgets.

I love interdisciplinary and movement based work. I love evocative design. I want jaws on the floor. I love art that embraces nuance, dissonance and discomfort. I love stories that challenge my own perspectives and introduce me to unfamiliar experiences. I love to work collaboratively and ambitiously, supporting others to accomplish big things. I love work that is tight, like a well oiled little orchestra (and I don’t mind a mixed metaphor).

When I’m not making art, I’m in the garden, working on my tennis backhand, and teaching teenagers math on zoom.”

“the chic-est multidisciplinary artist I know”
