From the Ishtar Tor, Eleusis, Delphi, Heidelberg, the Brocken, Brauron, to the grave of Rosa Luxemburg, she intimately connects with the sacred landscapes around her, guided by historical & folkloric cultural practices, as well as her own intuition and wisdom of the spirits embedded within.

________________________
Whether gifting elaborate offerings to ancient sacred deities, or feeding pfeffi to the local spirits at the cemetery, Rosa’s practice carefully cultivates respectful and reciprocal relationships with the spirits around her: aiming to activate the radical imagination, & reimagine the ways we can resist capitalism, white supremacy, facism, patriarchy & climate collapse.

Her favourite activity is crafting zines, & her creations can be found in many independent bookstores and Zine Fests in Berlin, London, Athens and the US.
From whirlwind tales about anarchist Sex Worker Wxtches (the Autonomous Coven of Apocalyptic Bitches), sci-fi odysseys about time travelling techno wizards, to imagined encounters between the rowdy spirits of Anita Berber and Rosa Luxemburg, her work explores themes of
witchcraft, activism, feminism, queerness, anti-capitalism, addiction, anti-racism and social change.
Notable titles include:‘The Apocalyptic Almanac of Agatha Peasu,’ ‘Berlin WXTCHES ACAB,’ and ‘Venus Unfolds the Rose.’
