About The Event
Together with the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic, we invite you to join an online discussion about magic and contemporary art, hosted by Dr Amy Hale.
Episode 8: Inspirited Objects, with Charlotte Rodgers and Emily Hunt
In this episode, Amy chats with two very different artists who centre the notion of spirit and life force in their creative practice. Somerset-based Charlotte Rodgers creates haunting, totemistic sculptural pieces incorporating animal remains, honouring their life-essence and memory. Multimedia artist Emily Hunt creates bold, colourful ceramics imbued with forces and personalities: servitor rings, ceramic portraits and marionettes, frequently honouring historical female occultists. Both artists discuss the vital energies of objects, and what it means to animate, feel or even direct an object's presence.
