Clara Jost

Clara Jost (1997, Lisbon) studied film editing and directing at the Escola Superior de Teatro e Cinema (Lisbon), and holds a master's degree in Audiovisual Arts from KASK (Ghent, Belgium), which she attended as a Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation fellow. Author of several short films, she also works as an editor, having collaborated with Teresa Villaverde, Tomás Paula Marques, Salomón Pérez and João Onofre, for example. In 2020, her film “Meine Liebe” won IndieLisboa's National Short Film Competition and circulated in countries such as France, Canada, Italy, Spain, Scotland, Mexico, Argentina. Bringing her thinking closer to the visual arts, in 2022 she wrote the thesis “Au hasard, cinema: thoughts on the location of cinema in space and time”, in which she reflected on the points of (dis)encounter between video art and cinema. She's currently working on her first installation piece.
