Manauara Clandestina (Manaus. Lives in São Paulo) is a visual artist and film student. Her early formation was shaped by experiences in evangelical missions in the interior of the Amazon, where she first engaged with art through church theater and music. Her practice emerges as an expression of urban nightlife and unfolds in performances that explore travesti (Brazilian transgender) experiences, marked by processes of transition and affectivity. She reflects on the subjectivities of dissident bodies through poetic constructions connected to the world of fashion. Her work has been shown at the Instituto de Arquitetos do Brasil and MASP (both in São Paulo), Museu de Arte Moderna do Rio de Janeiro, the Edinburgh International Film Festival, the 1st Amazon Biennial (Belém), and the 60th Venice Biennale.
