PADA Studios Artists-in-residence Elise Carlton.

Elise Carlton works across mixed-media and fiction to construct and populate indigenous futurist narratives. Born in Texas, her visual language is influenced by popular visual culture of and depicting the region—cartoons, (x)ploitation western films, commercial imagery, abandoned objects—exploring themes of identity, objectification/personification, historical amnesia and extinction. Her work has been exhibited in England, Finland, Mexico, Portugal and the US, and printed in Roundtable Journal and Poet Lore, among other publications. She is based in Lisbon, Portugal.

PADA is an Art Residency & Gallery based in a post-industrial site near Lisbon, Portugal.
