Nomadic by birth, inhabiting borders, Arielle has lived between four continents with a backpack fillled with desires and interest in sexualities and their (self-) representations. 
She is trained in documentary filmmaking, experienced in film programming, and started getting involved in the SWFAF after three years immersed in the San Francisco Bay Area where she met post porn activists, performers and ecosexuals of all sorts… 
She is currently in Marseille, where her alter ego Ari Gatak is looking for a donjon and a wig. She is also fond of photography, image-making analog technologies, sewing and crafts…

From flower child to whore mother, Scarlot embraces her archetypes.
