All of Them Witches considers the history of witch hunts in the Basque Country of northern Spain, where accused women were forced to make a damning series of confessions before the Inquisition. The existing narrative of violence and debauchery supposedly performed by the women was documented exclusively from a male perspective, forever marring the dignity of their real lives and names. Antón’s photographic work transforms these distorted testimonies into playful images that question the historical record and form a modern, relatable storyline from the absurdities of the past.
FIRST Edition Softcover, 170 x 210mm portrait; 200pp with 86 photographs and illustrations
Section sewn with exposed Swiss binding; printed paper covers with fold-out and embossing
Six art paper types from Fedrigoni, Munken and Favini
Texts by Amaia Nausia, Alice Markham-Cantor, and Bego Antón
Languages: English and Euskera (Basque)
ISBN 9781738130054
