Strategies for solace with Clara Diesen

“Poet, artist and creative director Clara Diesen was scheduled for a two-week residency in our studio to work on an artistic research project with the topic strategies for solace. However, a virus came in-between, and the residency was re-located outside (with our studio as a base for props and equipment). We asked Clara to tell us about the unfolding of the work, how her interest in gestures of comfort first started, and how the current situation has affected her research when social distancing re-negotiates our usual ways of communication.”
