In addition to her artistic work Clara Laila Abid Alsstar organizes herself in collective associations. In her practice, she is focussed on the processing of situated knowledge about experiences of discrimination and social justice as well as the critical questioning of existing power structures. In doing so, she explores the question of how individual and family memories can be understood as part of an oral culture of remembrance in socio-cultural and socio-political entanglements and how these can emerge from the private into the public, their dividing lines being dissolved and deconstructed.
