“We have forgotten we are of the planet — Made of minerals and inhaling the breath of trees. A liveable future is contingent upon healing this illusion of separateness. My art offers spaces for reconnection and alignment.“ – Clare Celeste
Berlin based collage artist, Clare Celeste Borsch is not only an artist but also an environmentalist. Her installations show great appreciation for our planet’s ecosystems and biodiversity. Through this appreciation she also hopes to bring awareness to the topics of climate change and the prevention of more biodiversity going extinct. In an interview she states that her artwork is a reflection of her love for nature. Fascinated by “the connections between organisms, the intricacies of ecosystems, and the complexity of nature…” she has created her most recent work of art and installation: Biodiversity. This is an immersive art installation made of hand cut paper images of flora and fauna. Borsch states that flora and fauna are reminders that we are “inextricably connected to the larger web of life”. Her ideas stem from having grown up all over the world. She adds that because of this, her life has been a collage of sorts: “For me, it makes sense to collage a Brazilian butterfly next to a North American flower. In my mind, they are intrinsically connected.”
