Fleischpflanzen - meat flowers - is a play on the Bavarian “fleischpflanzerl” for what is a meatball. Using various cuts of meat and wurst from weekly supermarket catalogues, Clare collages the flesh and flowers together, following complimentary forms and colours, playing as well with their names and advertising language. Two everyday products we enjoy and ingest. One we like to look at, the other less so, but both having undergone an industrialised process of production to satisfy our insatiable desires and demands of 'the market'.

Collaged from supermarket catalogues, adhered to butchers paper & flower papers, pigment printed.
