    19th June - 30th August 2025

    More info to follow.

  • The Otherworld (whether we believe in it or not) is a place we all wonder about, long for and recognise whenever we set foot there. It holds sought-after inspiration and insight for us - both individually and collectively - and the ways there are many and varied.

    Join renegade consciousness researcher and hypnotist Danny Nemu and artist-magician of the liminal realms Rima Staines to explore the different mannerisms and mechanisms of the imagination as the powerful threshold-crossing vehicle it is.

  • 6-7pm. 26th July 2025

    Green Hill Arts Moretonhampstead, Devon

    Once upon a time art and magic were considered very close disciplines, if not one and the same thing. Over time we have embraced rational thought and relegated art to a nice place above the mantelpiece.

    Rima Staines is a life-long artist whose otherworldly work focuses on the crossroads between art, magic, and folklore, and whose current Amulet-making project explores the threshold-crossing role of an artist as well as what it means to turn the magic of her own art upon herself.

    Terri Windling is an award-winning author, artist and folklorist whose own work has also centred on these mythic borderlands.

    You are invited to join Terri and Rima as they wander in conversation through the wonderland-realms of art and magic and discuss the beautiful, wild and vital powers that an artist is tasked with harnessing under their paintbrush, and ask: How can we reignite our creative life with the uncanny paradigm-upturning power it once held?
