During this week’s group discussion at Summerhall, my project underwent a structural adjustment. Previously, I had used the narrative framework of “maiden—mother—crone” to explore the social issues women face at different stages of life.

  [The final project differs significantly from the version presented in this curatorial pitch. The reasons for these changes are discussed in the later blog posts and critical reflection.]   My exhibition Under the Witch Moon centers on the theme of “witches,” using the iconic Triple Goddess symbol from Wicca and feminist mysticism as its […]
