Clara Waserstein’s textile art is more than creation—it is remembrance, resilience, and an intimate dialogue between past and present. Each thread carries meaning, each stitch a story. What began as a personal practice soon became something greater—a way to honor emotions, preserve memories, and connect with others through the unspoken language of texture and form. Her work is deeply intuitive, guided by feeling as much as by fiber. Every piece is layered with movement, emotion, and a quiet strength, transforming textiles into vessels of reflection. Her process is sacred—a meditation of the hands and heart—allowing her to weave together light and shadow, loss and love, with profound honesty. After experiencing the loss of her daughter, her art became an offering, a space where grief and beauty coexist, where every fiber is infused with memory and meaning. Clara’s compositions go beyond traditional textile work. She pushes the boundaries of fiber art, sculpting it into something immersive—textured landscapes of feeling, where softness meets structure and vulnerability meets resilience. The rhythm of her stitching mirrors the rhythm of life itself—ever-changing, sometimes fragile, but always deeply connected. Returning to Costa Rica after 25 years away, she has found herself drawn back to her roots, allowing the warmth and vibrancy of her homeland to subtly influence her work. Through her art, she invites the viewer to not only see, but to feel—to trace the emotions woven into the fibers and find their own reflections within. At Sol Gallery, we are privileged to share Clara’s work, knowing that her art is not just seen, but felt. Each piece invites stillness, connection, and reverence—a testament to the beauty of what remains eternal.
