a word for a witch

Inspired by Sheila Heti’s Alphabetical Diaries, we took our four‑month letter exchange—four voices writing in correspondence—and broke every sentence free from its original order.
All sentences are rearranged alphabetically, from first letter to last.

Here are the first three pages of the text.

a word for a witch is an ongoing investigation of the figure of the witch initiated by four international artists, Lily Dollner (UK/IR), Martina Priehodova (SK), Lieve Van Meegen (NL), and Klaudija Ylaite (LT).

What survives after capitalism collapses? Can ritual, sensuality, and collective madness be tools for the world in its hardest becomings?

‘A Word For A Witch’ is a statement provoking a shared experiment—an invitation to roll naked in the morning dew, to write letters to ghosts, and to collectively compost inherited fears.

Our collaboration is not a collective brand but a porous body.
Our thinking is rhizomatic, contradictory, and auto-fictional.

We speak with our hands, our feet, our fluids, our doubts. We world otherwise, entering the (dis)order not to heal, but to speak through it.

Witching is post-instrumental. It is not the aestheticisation of herbs and hexes, nor the commodified glow of lunar wellness capitalism.
