CLARISSA SOFIA
Clarissa Sofía is a contemporary photographer and poet. Her curious and observant nature was shaped growing up between two cultures, having both Spanish and English roots. Her visual and written works express a sense of melancholia, calmness and strength, whilst examining femininity and mental health in the hopes of destigmatising topics surrounding the naked body and mind. She continues to explore the mess of vulnerability, intimacy and connection. A large part of her influences come from nature and a fascination for deepening her understanding of the self.
" I am a true believer that creativity, art making and mindfulness, help us to accept ourselves with the beauty and quirks as well as our imperfections, and deepen our relationship from within. Providing a safe, non judgmental space for exploration, healing and self evolution.
Art is a universal language, where we can transmit our emotions, energy and thoughts. Our thoughts are interconnected. They carry a great power. Individually & collectively. Thoughts have an energy field, creating a complex connection of magnetic field. A bit like the fine threads sewing the net of consciousness & it's communication. I choose to work consciously in my art making process, allowing myself to play and discover. Prioritizing sustainability and ways to co-create with nature."
