Smoke & Sickle

Combining the mythical with the modern, Smoke and Sickle explores how we navigate each other’s identities in moments of vulnerability. Diving between languages and cultures this retelling of the Selkie myth offers an exploration of identity, trust and manipulation. Through their growing relationship the selkie and the man must navigate each other’s worlds and attempt to keep their own. But who do you believe? Who is the victim and who is the villain? Smoke and Sickle uses language and myth to explore how we make judgements on others and how we use our own identities in the world.
