Claire Browne is a Toronto-based artist whose practice explores the intersections of landscape, identity, and cultural memory. A graduate of OCAD University (BFA, 2015), Browne has exhibited widely in group exhibitions throughout the Greater Toronto Area, with work acquired into corporate collections including Scotiabank. She has created public artworks supported by StreetARToronto and was invited to speak as part of The Power Plant’s Glimpsing the Future artist talk series, contributing insights on diasporic narratives and contemporary Black art practices.

Browne’s paintings draw on the botanical world and tropical geographies, using landscape as a site for examining selfhood, heritage, and the Black diaspora. Through depictions of St. Vincent and the Grenadines—her paternal family’s homeland—she navigates generational stories of movement, displacement, and belonging. The landscapes she paints function as both memory and metaphor: spaces that hold cultural history while allowing new narratives to surface.

Botanical imagery is a central thread in her work. Browne considers plants as carriers of both beauty and complex histories—particularly the colonial systems that uprooted, relocated, and redefined plant life as part of broader structures of power. In her paintings, these natural forms are rendered with care and attention: valued for their delicate structure, their cultural significance, and their enduring role in shaping identity across generations.

These works are open-edition fine art prints created from her original paintings.
