R. São Gonçalo de Lagos ar, 8950-141 Castro Marim

Clara Cortes Garcia (1990) is a multidisciplinary artist born in Barcelona whose main subject is water. She has done projects, solo and group performances/ exhibitions/ shows/ installations in Barcelona, Berlin, Istanbul, Kuala Lumpur, Taiwan, Iceland and Tokyo. Her work is always linked to the space that surrounds her.
During her artistic residency in Castro Marim (for which she was selected following the Open Call put in place earlier this year) she will continue her decade-long research into water. She will record sounds and videos of the shapes/forms that can be found at the Guadiana river, the Atlantic Ocean and the Odeleite and Beliche dams, with the aim of transforming and distorting them to create an archive of a parallel perceptual reality of the experience of walking around them.
The work will be shown as an a/v installation at Casa do Sal, which opens on May 31st at 5pm and will last until June 11th.
