She works with charcoal, paint, wax and resin and is inspired by feminine spirituality, fantasy and myths. Her atmospheric style is designed to create a sense of the mysterious; to question the boundaries between the seen and unseen realities. In this exhibition she references planetary magic with her vibrant resin planets. Her work also features some of the sacred sites where modern-day witches gather.
Mark is also based in Blackpool and has long been fascinated by the Early Modern witch trials which occurred between 1500 – 1750. He sees parallels between the witch trials and many current events and movements. He works in a variety of media and also produces work based on mental health as well as being a freelance illustrator.
