Meet the Artist – Clara Spilliaert
In honour of the first edition of RHIZOMA, we invite artist Clara Spilliaert to give an exclusive look at her artistic practice and contributions to the biennial. During an inspiring talk, she will take you into the stories behind her work and give you an insight into the creative process. She will not only talk about the work she has created for RHIZOMA, but also about the ideas that drive her.
Participation is free for those in possession of an entry ticket for RHIZOMA; given the limited number of places, we do ask you to register online in advance.
Clara Spilliaert moved from Japan to Belgium in 2009, first studying drawing and later ceramics at LUCA School of Arts in Ghent. Expanding her practice beyond drawing, she began creating ceramic sculptures and installations. Her work is inspired by cultural observations and reflects a deep interest in history, mythology, nature and sexuality. Through her art, she weaves new narratives in which the lives of humans, animals and plants are intricately intertwined.
