Claire Benoist, an artist whose journey spans the continents, was born in the picturesque landscapes of Northern California and nurtured in the intellectually vibrant Alsace region of France. At the age of 16, she ventured to the East Coast, ultimately making her way to the dynamic art hub of New York City at 22. While her original accent may have faded, the essence of her diverse upbringing remains palpable in her work, imbuing it with a profound sense of wanderlust, an appreciation for fine wine, and a meticulous precision akin to that of a scientist. Claire's artistic practice is characterized by an extraordinary command of lighting, texture, composition, and a palette that bursts with vivid color. She has collaborated with a diverse range of clients, from the historic streets of Rome to the bustling avenues of Los Angeles, yet her creative heart beats strongest within her New York studio. Here, she continues to explore and expand the boundaries of her craft, merging her experiences into captivating visual narratives that resonate with audiences around the world.
