Abstract: | 'ONYX' Cathcart Cemetery, Glasgow. The cat-sìth is a spectral creature from Celtic Mythology said to resemble a large black catwith a white spot on its chest. Some common folklore suggested that the cat-sìth was not a fairy, but a witch that could transform into a cat nine times. Here this particular cat-sìth followed me around various tombstones in Cathcart Graveyard during the first lockdown. Soul Noir Festival is a new platform for Gothic artists both in Ireland and internationally. Dedicated to showcasing work that draws from queer magic, queer occultism; to explore the queer gothic experience. In 2022 I was asked to be part of the festival to produce images that revolve around this theme. Held in Dublin at The National Georgian Societies City Assembly House in the Knight of Glin Room (the first purpose built gallery space in Europe) and the O’Connell Room. | ||||
