I Put a Spell, a solo exhibition at A.I.R. Gallery, begins with the figure of the witch and opens into larger questions: who is named witch, priest, prophet, or heretic—and why? The paintings consider how ritual, magic, and ancestral wisdom live in the body, and how painting itself becomes a site of inquiry, vulnerability, and transformation. The exhibition was reviewed in Artspiel.
