INNSiDE Liverpool, part of Meliá Hotels International, is excited to present a new dot-art art exhibition featuring the work of Claire Western, an artist inspired by both nature and the emotional impact of music.
The exhibition, Echoes of Emotion, showcases Claire Western’s abstract interpretations of landscapes, exploring the interplay between colours, textures, and emotions. A graduate of Margaret Street School of Art in Birmingham, Claire’s creative process is deeply influenced by the natural world and the musical rhythms she listens to while painting. Her work combines layered, vibrant expanses of colour with strong, textured line work, creating a unique tension between playfulness and structure.
The abstract landscapes in the exhibition are designed to be intentionally unrecognisable, encouraging viewers to engage with the artwork in a personal way. Claire’s compositions are shaped by her experiences in nature—drawing inspiration from the textures of rock formations, weathered surfaces, and natural elements—while music influences the way she applies expressive brushstrokes and adds small embellishments. The combination of these influences brings a sense of ambiguity and curiosity to her work.
Echoes of Emotion is part of INNSiDE Liverpool’s commitment to its ‘Stay Curious’ philosophy, which aims to create enriched guest experiences through art, music, and culture. By showcasing local talent, the hotel fosters a deeper connection between the community, visitors, and the creative energy of the city.
