Suzanne St Clare is an artist, photographer and educator based in North West England.
Her practice centres on the exploration of memories and their staged, cinematic recreation and urban photography seeking beauty in the impermanent, imperfect and incomplete.
She has worked in collaboration with Open Eye Gallery, Tate Liverpool, Knowsley Council, Wales NHS and Wirral Borough Council to develop, document and run socially engaged projects with communities and groups.
Her research explores the therapeutic benefits of the visual arts on the mental health of young people in Britain today and the importance, relevance and impact of effective evaluation.
Suzanne is Director of Community Interest Company GLOW Creative Learning and runs a commercial photography business.
