PSSA Marsh Award of Excellence in Public Sculpture, 2025 Nominee
Designed to stand out, challenge expectations and powerfully make a difference to others, Cluer’s work sparks conversation; it visually attracts further inquiry by asking for interaction. Cluer repurpouses overlooked and foundational materials, combining her deep knowledge and craftsmanship to bring the imaginary into physical form. Her work is vibrant and playful, deliberately disguising its true materials to present itself as something entirely different. However, this deception is honest, open and unapologetic. Everything is on show for those who take the time to look.
​
An Ode to Never Fitting In, was acquired by The Canary Wharf Estate and are now permanently, publicly displayed within The Harbour Quay Gardens.​ Cluer’s outside, large sculptures are also held within The Roden collection after her month-long residency at Xenia Creative Retreat in Hampshire.​
