Duo project from Rachel Newton and Lauren MacColl. A humanising tribute to the women who were accused in the Scottish Witch Trials and an exploration into historical beliefs in the supernatural and modern day parallels in our society. The work is inspired by and in remembrance of real women who were persecuted and tried as witches, and characters from folkloric tales and mythology.
