Claudia's practice explores post-human and pre-human ecologies through painting and material experimentation. Across these works, she is interested in how life persists, mutates, and reorganises itself outside of human control, attention, and narrative.
The series Intermundio focuses on quiet post-human landscapes in which nature slowly reclaims spaces once shaped by human presence. Rather than depicting catastrophe, these works consider states of suspension and transition. These works are less about endings than about thresholds, suggesting a world in a prolonged state of becoming.
Alongside this, the series Organic Shapes of Nature develops through automatic drawing and painting processes that generate speculative, creature-like forms. These works are not designed in advance but emerge through intuitive gesture and repetition, suggesting organisms that exist before categorisation or fixed identity. They occupy a space between abstraction and life-form, reflecting an interest in emergence, instinct, and non-human logic.
Together, the two collections form a connected system of inquiry into what exists before, after, and beyond human presence — where worlds dissolve, and new forms of life quietly begin to appear.
