Photography Exhibit - Goddesses of Nature Exposição fotográfica - Deusas da natureza This companion photography exhibition was created for display at select screening events with the film, Yemanjá: Wisdom from the African Heart of Brazil. The exhibition features 13 stunning 20" x 30" photographic prints on high gloss, white aluminum. Images were shot on location during production primarily by film photographer Gerald Lee Hoffman. Photographs are often available for sale at special events in various formats, and by special order.
Giving Back to the Communities Featured in the Film This photo of the majestic Sisterhood of the Boa Morte was taken by a young member of the Calafate Women's Collective in Salvador, Bahia, during a service learning workshop conducted by Gerald Hoffman and Donna Carole Roberts. Partial proceeds from sales of this image support the work of the Collective. Similarly, proceeds from sales of our film's signature photo of matriarch Mãe Filhinha de Yemanjá-Ogunté will support the work of the Sisterhood of the Good Death (Irmandade da Boa Morte), of which Mãe Filhinha was a longtime member and leader.
We are grateful to The Heinz Endowments' Small Arts Initiative for partial funding of Goddesses of Nature photography exhibit.
