What is that
At the start of 2023 I read the book Circe by Madeline Miller. Circe is this witch who, in greek mythology, is often seen as a villain. Long story short : she turns men into pigs. She is merciless. She is what most would call a monster. Through Miller’s book, I learnt that not only is Circe a very powerful woman who tries to heal from her traumas, but she is also very similar to me. Mixing my experience of sexual assault, family trauma and healing with hers, I created this zine made of pieces of Miller’s book, historical paintings and my own story.
