 Katarzyna Majak explores the power of women as she searches for female wisdom and plurality of spiritual paths hidden within monoreligious Polish society. Majak's Women of Power series turns stereotypical witch imagery on its head and showcases striking images of women ranging from their 30's to 80's, wearing colorful unconventional clothes, and holding their unique objects of power. When asked what being a witch meant to one of the subjects in the series, she replied 'A witch is a woman of knowledge who takes a broom and sweeps to cleanse the world.'
Opening reception with the artist 6:30 - 8:30 at Porter / Contemporary, 548 W. 28th Street, 3rd Floor, NYC. |
