When Trump first came to power in 2017 I was horrified and felt helpless. What could I do to protect all that I love against this devastating turn of events?
I had recently been doing in depth research into amulets, talismans and fetishes and the magical ways that people protected themselves against evil, disease and warfare in the past and those that are still extant.
I developed a series of textile sculptures ‘Fetishes for Uncertain Times’ as a response to the devastating political events and predicted climate apocalypse. With all that happened in his first term I never imagined Trump would be re-elected and I don’t believe he really won.
