Biography
Carla Geronimi (b.1998, Switzerland) is an Artist Filmmaker who creates moving image works that showcase imaginary places, fictional stories and creature-like characters. Her works principally explore dreams, memory and identity with the use of non-coherent storylines and absurd narratives. Also drawn to ideas around uncanniness, anthropomorphism and sensory experiences, Carla draws her inspiration from symbols, myths and inanimate objects.
โ
Her film 'Escondida' was the winner of the LABO price at the Festival International du Film de Nancy 2020 and a semi-finalist at the Cefalรน Film Festival 2021. 'La promenade' was a quarter-finalist at Crossroads International Short Film Festival 2021. 'Ladon' was showing as part of Looking Forward Art Projects Screening Room Programme during the month of August 2021.
โ
After graduating from a BA (Hons) in Sound Art & Design at University of the Arts London, she is currently undertaking a MA in Fine Art Media at the Slade School of Fine Art and a Postgraduate Diploma in Location Sound Recording for Film and Television at the National Film and Television School, both in England.
