About this space

The purpose of rhythm, it has always seemed to me,

is to prolong the moment of contemplation,

the moment when we are both

asleep and awake.                         

​

W. B. Yeats

In some ways, the purpose of this space is much the same thing but through images, and writ small: personal musings in ink, paint, and graphite, meant to be enjoyed and, when wished, shared in a more concrete way (hence, the shop).

​

About the name: while my name isn't Chiara (or even Claire or another version), it means light, clarity, radiance. I thought that was a good name for this space. Not that my thoughts are anything close to those things but that I wanted a space that was light-filled and minimalist (how that word's been hijacked), with only the barest of a blog and more art than anything else.
