Klara is a Polish multi-media artist living in Nottingham.
She works with sculpture, video and performance. Drawing from socio-political themes like fetish and kitsch she links the political and social to the visceral, metaphysical and inner. She looks at how the durability and non-disposability of familiar, pretend-to-be-functional objects lure us in with the promise of forever nourishment.
