Description
This practice-led research project addresses the political and creative significance of the witch archetype as an emancipatory symbol for alterity in contemporary art. Framed within an intersectional feminist methodology, it explores cultural mythologies, personal histories, political activism, gender and sexual rebellion. Using embodied performance it explores the significance of disruptive feminist voices and reimagines intersectional identities in contemporary art practice through the figure of the 'witch' as Other.
