Clara Bolle, Artist and Philosopher

My name is Clara Bolle (*1985, Amsterdam). I studied philosophy and cultural studies (with honours).

As a philosopher, I view my writings and art as tools to do research. My main question in relation to thinking and making is: What does it mean to be your body instead of having a body? My aim is to think of bodies in a non-medical, anti-capitalist way and look for other ways to experience our bodies.

In addition to creating I occasionally hold lectures and talks about philosophy of art, cultural critique, and art history for cultural institutions and universities. Next to my art practice, I’m also the founder of parrhesiastes.blog.

Clara Bolle lives and works in Rotterdam, The Netherlands
