Carla Geronimi: Ladon

Ladon is based on mythology; it evokes a dreamscape that immerses and maintains suspense. Carla explores dreams, memory and identity with the ambiguity of non-linear narratives that often bleed into the absurd. Ethereal imagery and sound-scaping are tools used to build a sensory experience – the film becomes an environment as it envelops and ultimately involves the viewer.

"I create moving images works that showcase imaginary places, fictional stories and creature-like characters. My works principally explore dreams, memory and identity with the use of non-coherent storylines and absurd narratives. Also drawn to ideas around the uncanny, anthropomorphism or sensory experiences, I draw my inspiration from symbols, myths and inanimate objects." - Carla Geronimi
