On the occasion of the exhibition, a talk between the artist Elisa Strinna and the curator and researcher Sonia D’Alto will reciprocally disclose their researches on witchery and popular healers in Italy, delving in gender mythologies entangled with practice of care on the human body in relation with the non human.
