Experimenting with the use of cathartic method and chance, Carla Perera's work delves into the chaos of the mind and reveals hallucinogenic imagery that can reflect a trance like state upon the spectator. She toys with the simplest of household objects and

scenarios to create something visually engaging.

 

 

Perera's main influences are based on personal experiences and themes that are embedded within her work including 'Childhood, discomposure' and 'Yearning to belong'. The fear of her own mind pushes her work to create such imagery. She states “My work is my drug.”
