Abstract

The Arts and Humanities Research Council-funded project ‘Modern Fairies and Loathly Ladies’ investigated what happened when a number of artists (musicians, writers, filmmakers) were asked to respond to and re-mediate a curated selection of traditional stories about fairies and loathly ladies. The artists came to the project with a spectrum of different views about fairies, ranging from belief in their existence to absolute scepticism about the supernatural. The works-in-progress they created were performed in a series of experimental shows at The Sage Gateshead theatre in 2019. The artists took up certain themes such as the otherworld, time slippage, fairies, and children, but were not attracted by others. Fairy material was reconfigured to reflect contemporary concerns about the natural world and to explore ways in which magical human–animal transformation spoke to women’s experience.

使“现代仙女”:使仙女现代

摘要

由艺术与人文研究委员会资助的“现代仙女与厌恶女士”项目调查了当许多艺术家(音乐家,作家,电影制片人)被要求回应并重新整理精选的关于仙女与厌恶性的传统故事时发生的情况女士们。这些艺术家对仙子的看法各不相同,从对仙子的信仰到对超自然的绝对怀疑,不一而足。他们创作的作品正在进行中,并于2019年在The Sage Gateshead剧院进行了一系列实验性表演。艺术家采用了诸如“另类世界”,“时光倒流”,“仙女”和“儿童”之类的某些主题,但并未被其他主题所吸引。
