This exhibition brings together portraits of witches and female shamans, healers, visionaries and spiritual leaders standing in opposition to the catholically dominated spiritual horizons in Poland.
To date, only a few traditional healers known as 'whisperers' and living close to the Polish-Belarus border have managed to carry on the Polish tradition of healing and breaking spells by means of prayer. Others have been either trying to revive a dead tradition or adopting spiritual knowledge from other parts of the world.
