Clara Aramburo (1993) is a Mexican artist living and working in Amsterdam. Her artistic practice spans the fields of installation, cooking activations, painting, video and photography.

Through her experience of coming from Mexico and living abroad, her curiosity has turned to research how bodies can create connections to landscapes thought embodied knowledge, identity, and cultural attachments. At the same time, she brings importance to where she comes from, memory and family, within the lens of magical connections in storytelling.

Through cooking activations, she is joyful to find moments of care, rest and connection while being responsive to the current landscape, by experimentation, research and questioning.
