Claire Johnston
Set Decorator & Buyer, Designer & Art Director

About
I like to think I am creative, hard working, and resourceful. My skill set covers a diverse knowledge of budgets, sourcing props & materials and creative processes, due to over 25 years in various roles. Originally a Set Decorator on commercials with award winning Designer Robin Brown. Leading to 35+ scripted dramas as Art Director. In recent years as Production Designer & Supervising Art Director using budget & crew management skills.
Today I focus on Set Decoration using all those previous roles to curate landscapes that portray personality and life environments. Drawing from forensic historical research & my Fine Art & Installation background, I hope my sets show the length & depth of my life long curiosity of people watching in the mirror. Simply put: making sets that are a mirror reflecting life's (often mundane) reflections.
"Life doesn't imitate art, it imitates bad television", a quote by Woody Allen.
