Is it, is it not? (2019)
Intricate paintings on paper and cloth, based on Portuguese folklore and tales, particularly those from the book Contos Tradicionais do Povo Português (Traditional Tales from the Portuguese People), by Teófilo Braga.
Through a child-like approach Clara navigates mischief and fantasy, aspects which seamlessly coexist in fables.
A wide variety of techniques was explored, such as screen-printing and digital printing on fabric, embroidery, painting, and miniature-making.
