Clara Amaral: She Gave It To Me I Got It From Her

This volume is part of artist Clara Amaral’s broader research on publishing modalities and their relation to performative practices. With an artistic practice grounded in an interdisciplinary perspective, she questions what it means to be a reader, to be a writer, aiming to expand existing modes of reading and writing. In particular she investigates innovative publishing modalities and the performative aspect of writing and language through an intersectional feminist approach. Driven by her explorations of “hand choreography”, the volume reveals personal narratives that expand into a political dimension while also focusing on the legal expression of identity and how we exist in the world.
