Clare Qualmann

Qualmann in 2011

Clare Qualmann is a British multi-media performance artist based in London, UK. She is a senior lecturer in performing arts at the University of East London and also teaches at London Metropolitan University.

Career

Qualmann's work uses a range of participatory methods to explore the routines and narratives of everyday life. A large body of her work focuses on the practice of walking as a way to interrogate the familiarity of place and has been described as “a kind of anti-dérive”.

Qualmann is a member of walkwalkwalk with Gail Burton and Serena Korda, who practice "'an archaeology of the familiar and forgotten," organising public walks through familiar places deemed marginal or overlooked.

As a solo artist Qualmann has further developed her walking practice. Qualmann is a founding member of the international Walking Artists Network, created in 2007. Through the network Qualmann has organised numerous walking research events and exhibitions, including the Step by Step seminar series at the University of East London, the footwork research group, and Where To? Towards the Future Steps of Walking at Falmouth University with Misha Myers.
