Description: In her school zine, Pinhong Wu explores the demonization of women and the archetype of witches by assessing the characterizations of Circe from the Odyssey and Yang from Guifei the Emperor, aligning their narrative arcs with that of the witch trope. Her argument is structured through scene portrayals from the Odyssey and the Emperor alongside handwritten, comedic thought bubbles and snippets of explanatory text; Chinese calligraphy painted in ink is featured throughout the zine.
