$639.00

Maybe you know Buddy, Clara's imaginary friend, from others' artworks. And here he is again, with Clara in the hospital. A self-portrait with her friend and the hospital name written in 3D letters is a new way for Clara to design letters.

This art piece is a mix of collage, acrylic, and marker. In Clara's world, Buddy is represented in many shapes, and this time, your imagination can suggest which form he has (animal, stuffed puppet, or?)

Carlo built a 3D wood frame with recycled material for this drawing. You can see the details in the pictures.

This collection is inspired by the day that Clara went to Choc Pediatric Hospital to do her electroencephalogram. Clara was very anxious about that because it was her first time in the hospital in America. She needed to do this exam for one day and one night to check her brain and understand more about seizures. She is not having for a long time, and the doctors were amazed that everything was working so well. Clara stayed in the hospital with Carlo (dad) and had a good time there.

Clara had more than 30 exhibitions on three continents (Europe, America, and Asia), sold more than 700 original artworks worldwide, and obtained an American visa as an extraordinary talent.

Clara's art and life served as inspiration for the book "Voce su tela" published by KM Edizioni in Italy, the video book "The incredible, unbelievable and unstoppable Clara" published by The Brilliant Kid App in the United States, and the TV series "Estraordinariamente normali" produced by the Italian channel TV 2000.

Clara was featured in important magazines and newspapers such as Forbes, Grazia, Marie Claire, FAD, and Arts of Life. Clara also worked with the legend of contemporary art and fashion, Virgil Abloh. Last but not least Louis Vuitton group hosted Clara's exhibition in Art Basel Miami in 2021 to celebrate the international day of people with disabilities.

Clara owns the company Clara Woods LLC together with her mom Betina. Clara's family is raising the brand Clara Woods Collection to build a future with and for Clara. The main goal is to create a structure that, in the end, can help other artists with disabilities to rise as Clara did.
Clara Woods Collection talks about diversity, inclusion, and equality. Clara's art speaks of the hope of chasing a dream and the beauty of risking everything to pursue 
something unconventional. It speaks of love and resilience.

Clara Woods brief history: Clara had a perinatal stroke and massive brain damage. Doctors didn't expect any evolution in Clara's life. Clara can understand three languages (Portuguese, English, and Italian), but she can not speak, write or read. Art is one of the ways she communicates, and it is where she can be 100% herself.
