Strange Horizons Gallery Presents...

Images of Mystery and Imagination: Carole Carmen

I am from Kent, England, and work in a variety of media including sculpture, photography, oil paint, printing, etc, and now computer enhanced images. I have always either mixed media or combined elements in order to get interesting results.

Having started off doing portraits and Natural History illustrations which were fairly detailed and restrained, I then went on to do a BA (Hons) degree in Fine Art, which gave me a lot more ideas about making images.

"Red Angel" is now the cover of Darker than Tin, Brighter than Sin (an anthology of strange angel stories) to benefit the Scholarship Fund of the Online Writing Workshop for SF, Fantasy & Horror.

"Grideye" is on the back cover of Issue 1 of Midnight Street.

I also think the short story is a great art form (like a little polished jewel), and have stories in the magazines Legend and Horror Express and work online at the Night Lands site (which features work set in the world of William Hope Hodgson's The Night Land -- a book which reads like a phantasmagorical oil painting). There are also stories upcoming in the anthologies Sutekh's Gift and Amazing Heroes.

We’d been on holiday at the Shoon Sea only three days when the incident occurred. Dr. Gar had been staying there a few months for medical research and had urged me and my friend Shooshooey to visit.
...
Tu enfiles longuement la chemise des murs,/ tout comme d’autres le font avec la chemise de la mort.
The little monster was not born like a human child, yelling with cold and terror as he left his mother’s womb. He had come to life little by little, on the high, three-legged bench. When his eyes had opened, they met the eyes of the broad-shouldered sculptor, watching them tenderly.
Le petit monstre n’était pas né comme un enfant des hommes, criant de froid et de terreur au sortir du ventre maternel. Il avait pris vie peu à peu, sur la haute selle à trois pieds, et quand ses yeux s’étaient ouverts, ils avaient rencontré ceux du sculpteur aux larges épaules, qui le regardaient tendrement.
We're delighted to welcome Nat Paterson to the blog, to tell us more about his translation of Léopold Chauveau's story 'The Little Monster'/ 'Le Petit Monstre', which appears in our April 2024 issue.
For a long time now you’ve put on the shirt of the walls,/just as others might put on a shroud.
