Claire Hannicq is a visual artist and coordinator of the Faires Workshop in the Vosges region of France. She is a graduate of HEAR Strasbourg and ESAL-Épinal.
Her practice oscillates between sculpture and image. She works with wood, glass, and metal to evoke notions inherent to the immaterial: the flow of thoughts, relationships, and feelings. Hannicq’s work has been exhibited in Canada at the Optica art center in Montreal and the Galerie Engramme in Quebec City; in Switzerland at the Kunsthalle, Salon Mondial, and Projektraum M54 in Basel; in Germany at the Saarländisches Künstlerhaus and the Moderne Galerie in Saarbrücken, as well as the Kunsthaus L6 in Freiburg; in Estonia at the EKA Gallery in Tallinn and the Tartu Art House; and in Sweden at the Galerie Grafik i Väst in Gothenburg. In France, she has exhibited at the MAC VAL, the FRAC Alsace and the FRAC Franche-Comté, the Kunsthalle in Mulhouse, the Synagogue of Delme, the Museum of Fine Arts and Archaeology of Besançon, the Museum of Images in Épinal, as well as the Printing Museums of Nantes and Lyon. Claire Hannicq has participated in residencies at the Darling Foundry in Montreal, the Grafikwerkstatt in Dresden, in Spain, Sweden, and France.
