Clare McCracken

Clare McCracken is a mixed-media conceptual artist and academic working on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nations. Her practice includes large-scale immersive installations, fine art objects and contemporary performance works. She works site-responsively, across disciplines and collaboratively with other artists to create works that interrogate contemporary social, political and environmental issues from an Australian perspective. Her most recent body of work has focused on the way that mobile technologies such as the car, plane, ship and Internet shape the way we perceive and inhabit space. Clare has created over 30 temporary public artworks for sites across Melbourne, Hobart and Sydney – including Federation Square and Cockatoo Island.
