handbuilt contemporary ceramics
 

Clara Rêgo

 

Visual artist from Porto working with ceramics and tiles.

I make sculptural pieces modeled manually in ceramics, inspired by  shapes and textures of corals, rocks,  minerals, fungi, microscopic images and various other natural elements. The symbolism of my creations draws on various mythologies, dreams and meditations and by crossing them with imaginary utopian narratives, I create elements of feminine expression and empowerment and representations of possible natures, in a creative movement of catharsis and ritual.
