Eros+Massacre: Charles & Prantera

Eros+Massacre are an artist duo who make music and art and write together. Separately they are Conny Prantera and Sanna Charles.

Conny Prantera is a London based multimedia artist whose work ranges from painting, video art to performance and sound. She is a regular contributor to fashion label Aries Arise, for which she creates illustrations, props and animations, and since 2016 has collaborated with dancer and choreographer Cristiana Morganti on her award-winning performances.

Conny Prantera is the creator of The Seer, a multi-media performance based on the myth of Cassandra, for which she was nominated by Red Bull Academy as one of the “7 women audiovisual artists pushing boundaries and challenging perceptions.”

In all her works Conny Prantera mixes fragments of a personal mythology that reimagines pagan and sacred iconographies through the spectral lens of digital folklore. In this alchemy of sound and images, ancient archetypes are recast in shimmering new forms, dissolving boundaries between past and future, real and unreal, self and collective visions.

Sanna Charles is a Finnish-British visual artist living in Norway, working primarily with analogue photography, with the inclusion of text, video, music and sound. Sanna works through a lens of feminist theory; bringing to the foreground what is often in the background and finding natural and otherworldly connections in the human constructed world. She attempts to identify the chaos amongst the constructed order of human existence.
