Rift
Clara Mann

“Rift is a tangible expression of Clara’s entire world—a snow globe raised in her palms for the world to see, in all its layers and complexities, containing all her love, relationships, memories, and experiences.

It is this sheer transparency that has allowed her to relinquish and accept all parts of herself—the guilt, pain, and beauty of it all—like “swallows in the morning air, circling the dam.” Its truthfulness is its strength, not shying away from the painful experiences of life but embracing them as essential to the human experience and as part of our tapestry”

For this release with state51 we designed a limited edition run of 50 folios. Each made in a white board with screenprinted dot gradient to reflect the patterns seen in car windscreens, and an original drypoint print made and printed by Clara mounted on the front, and Clara’s handwriting “Bisous, Clara x” screen printed on the inner front 

The 51st one off box is made in the same dot gradient printed paper. It is a sleeve box with the original drypoint plate mounted on to the centre front. The interior box houses the record, and displays a tracklist handwritten by Clara as well as “Bisous, Clara x” screen printed on the lower centre front. This space also holds a zine designed by Clara.
