Who were the women accused of witchcraft?
Who is drawn to witchcraft today?
I am addressing witchcraft through five interviews with women who hold some connections to the esoteric or occult. Their stories address healing, investigate sisterhood, and challenge sociological issues, using witchcraft as a starting point for discussion. Themes include mediumnity, witch trials, astrology and modern witchcraft rituals, but also gatekeeping within witchcraft communities. The conversations are brought to life by mixed media illustrations and creative use of paper.
Three printed books have been finalised, and the book can be ordered as commission and printed on demand.

Embossed symbol. Some pages of this book contain "hidden" symbols: small embossed and debossed markings. The symbols are designed by me and repeated also in the pastedown for the book. Each interviewee has been assigned a symbol which is used in their interview as alias.
