Bringing together the work of 13 of Scotland’s most inventive, creative and impactful women craft artists, 'Hag. Knowledge, Power & Alchemy through Craft' celebrates the knowledge, power & alchemy mediated by their work.

The exhibition seeks to reclaim and redefine the term ‘Hag’ for the current age by celebrating the strength, wisdom, activism, rebelliousness and creativity of craftswomen with ambitious aims to challenge societal prejudices and foster a deeper understanding of the rich tapestry of experiences that women who engage intensively with their craft bring to contemporary culture.

Fife Contemporary are delighted to be working with Curator, Kate Pickering, and our partners at ONFife to bring this exhibition to Dunfermline Carnegie Library and Galleries in March 2025. The featured artists are: Lise Bech, Judith Davies, Caroline Dear, Claire Heminsley, Fiona Hutchison, Ruth Elizabeth Jones, Gilly Langton, Jo McDonald, Susie Redman, Patricia Shone, Carol Sinclair, Amanda Simmons and Emma Louise Wilson.
