Director Statement

The Magician presents a visual work of magick; a complete system of ritual and initiation lay bare in the frames. For the inculcation of Magick and its practice, the novitiate must intone and repeat, intone and repeat, intone, until the work is thusly vibrated, illumined and revealed.

Showcasing the international talents of designer Rosita Hurtado and jewelry by Meesha Farzaneh, The Magician enrobes these magical tools in a moving tapestry of prismatic veils.
