The exhibition How to Talk to the Weather Demons explores the intersection of Slavic mythology and contemporary environmental concerns. In Slavic lore, weather demons, known as płanetnicy, are believed to govern atmospheric conditions, including precipitation and storms.

The exhibit reflects on the growing urgency to understand and control nature in the face of climate crises, such as flooding, droughts, and weather anomalies, which have become increasingly prevalent. By focusing on water—both as a vital life source and a common resource under threat—the exhibition highlights the environmental degradation humanity is causing and the need for a collective, respectful approach to nature.
