Clara Amaral (Portugal)
Clara Amaral on kunstnik, kes töötab teksti ja performance’iga. Tema interdistsiplinaarne kunstnikupraktika küsib, mida tähendab olla lugeja, olla kirjanik, püüdes avardada olemasolevaid lugemise, kirjutamise ja kirjastamise viise. Tema praktikas on kesksel kohal uurida publitseerimise viise ja kirjutamise ning keele performatiivseid aspekte feministliku ühisosa kaudu. Clara Amarali töid on tutvustatud Hollandis, Portugalis, Hispaanias, Belgias, Rootsis, Austrias, Norras, Šveitsis, Prantsusmaal jne.
Küsimusele tema võimatu soovi kohta vastas Clara Amaral niisuguse häälikumängulise tekstiga, et selle eestindamine ilma seda tundmatuseni moonutamata jääb paraku võimatuks sooviks.
