Myrid Carten is a filmmaker and moving image artist from Donegal whose practice explores personal narratives, family, legacy, subjectivity and truth, repetition, inheritance and the potential (or otherwise) of escape from all of the above. Beautifully crafted by a natural filmmaker the work exploits the forms of interview format and hard-hitting factual documentary.
