Eidola (To Win A Woman's Love)

Need some extra help during this Venus retrograde? We have just the spell for you. 

Linda Persson, an interdisciplinary Swedish artist based in London, works with histories, myths, and their material tethers. Each spell kit in her Eidola series provides you with a hand-painted, twice-fired ceramic eye brooch, a paper rune box, and directions for activation. 

To Win a Woman's Love is a sophisticated, intense interaction between language, sight, and power. Made through a ritual practice, it should be worn with reflection and strong intent. If used wisely, its magic may empower the wearer, but tread lightly. 

Cast this spell to win a special woman’s love. Follow the directions (you’ll need access to an oak tree and your beloved), wear the dingy-rosé-colored pin, and she’ll be yours. 

To Win A Woman’s Love will provide emotional fortitude, a magical fashion accessory, and compliments for days. 
 

Linda Persson has shown work and performed at multiple biennials and museums, including the Venice Biennial, IT, Momentum Biennial, NOR, and the Luzern Kunstmuseum, CH. 

Her performative sculpture and research seeks to bring to life immaterial practices around historical objects. She often works with indigenous groups and their myths. Much of her practice relates to seeing language shift, and sometimes disappear.
