Clara is a designer, based in Cologne. She received her BA from the School of Design in Pforzheim, during which she lived and worked in New York. Her research- driven series of glass objects entitled ‘Waters’, was awarded as the winner of the Future Objects & Materials category of one-year long research program Water Futures at A/D/O in Brooklyn.
She now continues to explore the materiality of glass as she creates sculptural glass collections for wall and body.
