Fiona Clark is a New Jersey based artist, having grown up in Princeton and now residing in Bloomfield, who specializes in bright, bold, colorful abstracts that spark joy.
Whether that is through ceramics, paintings or public art. Fiona began her signature style of drawings in 2001, as a way to accompany graffiti lettering she was exploring at the time. Over the years, she has developed the lines and forms as a means to express herself and interpret the world around her. She graduated cum laude in 2007 from the University of Hartford Art School with a BFA concentration in Visual Communication Design, minors in Photography and Art History. She moved to New York City post graduation to pursue a career in graphic design and worked as a digital art director in the fashion industry for 10 years before deciding to pursue art full-time. Fiona moved back to New Jersey in 2020 and now creates out of her home studio.You can see her daily drawings on instagram here: fionac.nyc
StatementI specialize in bright, bold, colorful abstracts that spark joy. I do this through paintings, ceramics or public art. I have an interest in how art can combat the epidemic of loneliness, depression and isolation, whether that is through work in peoples personal collections or out in the wild in public spaces. As an abstract artist, I’m able to really invest myself into a work and explore my emotions on a deeper level as I build layer upon layer. When it comes to public art, I enjoy looking at the space, the community that space resides within and how my art can add something positive to that community.
