Hag. Online Exhibition
8 March 2025 - 8 November 2025
The online edition of Hag. is both an inspiring archive of what the exhibition achieved and a resource for further insights into contemporary craft in Scotland.
Hag. Knowledge, Power & Alchemy through Craft challenges perceptions of women and craft, seeking to reclaim and redefine the term ‘Hag’ for the current age by celebrating the strength, wisdom, activism, rebelliousness and creativity of craftswomen.
In 2025 Fife Contemporary launched Hag. Knowledge, Power & Alchemy Through Craft at Dunfermline Carnegie Library & Galleries.
Curated by Kate Pickering, the exhibition challenged perceptions of women and craft through the work of thirteen women artists in Scotland: Lise Bech, Judith Davies, Caroline Dear, Claire Heminsley, Fiona Hutchison, Ruth Elizabeth Jones, Gilly Langton, Jo McDonald, Susie Redman, Patricia Shone, Carol Sinclair, Amanda Simmons and Emma Louise Wilson.
The online edition of Hag. is both an inspiring archive of what the exhibition achieved and a resource for further insights into contemporary craft in Scotland. Fife Contemporary are grateful to all the artists for their openness, honesty and commitment to this exhibition.
