Playing with the Gods

concept

Fascinated by Greek mythology and applying it to a personal contemporary reality, developing alternative, ironic versions of well-known myths. To the extent that these fables depict how we live our lives by conditioning what we think is right or wrong. Clare implemented this moralistic simplicity to modern society, where sometimes morals can be lost behind a barricade of political correctness, bureaucracy or within personal relationships.
