INTRODUCTION

Working between abstraction and landscape, McCann Clark’s paintings explore weather as both meteorological event and emotional condition.

Her work is rooted in walking, a practice which functions as both collection method and emotional metabolism: a way of processing atmosphere, memory, and internal states through bodily movement and attention.

Walking is also a form of material and emotional enquiry, recording, gathering, photographing fragile or discarded materials which become markers of impermanence and persistence. These residues carry traces of weather, human presence, erosion, and survival and feed back into the paintings, both physically and conceptually.
