Item Type: Thesis
Creators: Gagne, Juliana
Abstract:

Echoes of Water: They Called Her a Witch explores water, feminism, portals and family history through autoethnographic research followed by a creative research process of psychic automatism - resulting in an immersive multi-media installation that questions the possibility of water acting as a conduit through which one may access an inter-dimensional Portal to the Spirit-World.
Portals are represented in the visual components of my thesis work through the usage, symbology and multiplicity of circles which appear in multiple forms of media.
