Transforming the Witch: Feminist Mysticism in the Works of Remedios Varo and Leonora Carrington
Both Varo and Carrington sought to bring the esoteric and the mystical into their artistic practice, blending surrealism with themes of spirituality and the occult. Their work often centered on the inner world of women, exploring transformation, magic, and the subconscious. By challenging traditional gender roles and embracing a deeply personal, intuitive approach to creation, they forged a unique space within the surrealist movement, one that resonated with a broader feminist mysticism than the stereotypical depictions we know.
