The artists in Animus are dedicated to a creating art of depth and beauty. All, in their unique way, intend a re-consecration of art for the purpose of the re-enchantment of the world

Within 'Otherworldly Tales each artist leaves their gift at the feet of the Inconceivable Light

Catkin van Hoppe’s ethereal watercolours are portals to the landscape of fairytale and untold stories.

Fergus Hall's work leaks out through a crack in reality

Julie MacLeod's writing is a whispering at the threshold of dreaming

Jesse Ball is inspired by sacred relics, lost treasure and organic forms. Through her jewellery, she seeks to invoke a feeling of magic, mystery and adventure.
