description This article explores the negative stereotype of the witch. The artist uses high-end computer-imaging technology to alter large format photographic images on the computer screen. She discusses the process of working in still-life photography--and specifically the tradition of the Vanitas--with computer montage techniques. A particular emphasis is placed upon the potential of computer compositing for fusing image and text, experimenting with image metamorphosis and promoting visual illusion. The artist develops a model for the witch/sorceress as a reaction against cultural stereotypes.
