Judy’s Nightmare is a playful reinterpretation of the famous nightmare scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s film Vertigo shifting the viewpoint from Scottie to Judy as she is made, and remade, into Madeleine. Tangled in the web of Carlotta, Judy falls into a blonde vortex that fabricates multiple Madeleines creating a hazy green vertigo.
