Susu Laroche's
film stills
Digital and hand printed 16mm stills of hand developed 16mm film, transferred to digital. Laroche works with hand developed analogue film from a studio/darkroom in London. She has been working with 16mm since 2010.
These films portray peaks of melodrama in heightened emotional states during situations of crisis and conflict. Her work is mostly inspired by the writing of JG Ballard and Georges Bataille.
