Sandy Amerio is a visual artist and filmmaker. She was born in 1973 in Paris and currently lives in Berlin. In her work, she initiates confrontations of contemporary society with the aesthetic codes and issues that circulate within it. Her films reveal the deeply heterogenous and violent nature of our realities, reflected in their representations. In an anthropological approach, she creates based on narratives and images that are parts of the collective unconscious. Her latest striking documentary DRAGOONED, deploys hypnotic magic as an emotional trap where the rituals of fiction colonize reality. At the very heart of the aesthetic of archival films and in particular their televisual reinterpretation, Amerio expresses the possibility of a vertiginous return of WWII into the present.
