Claudia Johns II




"Witches could be anywhere at any time and have the aim to rid the world of children and their characteristics; fuss, mess and other fun things creating a more ordered, clinical and controlled world. Taking inspiration from constructivist art and Advance Style Blogs an all female army has been formed to recreate the traditional witch stereotype. A minimalist symbol of recognition has been developed for a contemporary camouflage representing the witches aim of mass control and capture creating a netlike skeletal world map."




Other traits are the angular and pointed elements used within the costume design acting as strange limb-like appendages that can be used mid-performance when trying to camouflage themselves and a strong, bold colour pallet with tactile layers to lure the children in." Claudia Johns
