Mossy Coat

Mossy Coat is an Old English fairytale about a poor woman who escapes a forced marriage and finds freedom and autonomy in an oppressive society by wielding the magic of a coat of wild mosses. It is through an intimate relationship with a wild plant that protects and allows the heroine to retain her vitality, her agency, her connection and belonging to her home and to herself. Inspired by Angela Carter’s charming retelling of this fairytale in her book Old Wives’ Fairytale Book.

 

Caribou Sky

Inspired by a folktale about the seasonal cycle of the sun that draws loosely from several stories from Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia, and indigenous Sami folklore. The Goddess of the Sun is pulled by a herd of caribou that changes into a bear, as she makes her way across the horizon and brightens the sky.
