At Loggerheads with Reality (Part 2) : Leonora Carrington

Dela

Join Dash Arts at the Freud Museum in London as we delve into “Leonora Carrington: The Symptomatic Surreal.” Curator Vanessa Boni guides us through Carrington’s turbulent early years—from her life with Max Ernst in France to her wartime breakdown and confinement in a Spanish sanatorium.


We explore the haunting "Villa Pilar" and sketchbooks born from crisis, linking Carrington’s mythic imagery to Freud’s own underworld motifs. This episode uncovers the alchemical threads connecting two 20th-century icons in the very room where Freud once slept.


This episode is part of Dash Arts' series At Loggerheads with Reality - an ongoing exploration of creativity, mental health and the radical act of making art, and part of the development for its production of The Degenerates.
