Claire Benn: When handwriting becomes texture

In this episode, Claire Benn joins Deborah White to reflect on handwriting as an expressive, material practice. Working across ink, paper and textiles, Claire speaks about text as mark, texture and gesture rather than language. The conversation explores learning through repetition, suspending judgement, and how slowing down can open new creative pathways. Claire also shares insights into the ideas and approaches woven through her new course TEXTure, offering a glimpse of what participants can expect when they begin transforming their own handwriting into material expression.Learn more about Claire’s course TEXTure.Visit our website to explore our courses, or dive into more articles and interviews.
