A new photo exhibit from a renowned photojournalist pushes for action on abortion access in the face of the looming Roe decision, documenting the violence, love and spirit in women's lives.

“Women are extraordinary, and women have a great capacity for loving and for being loved,” Ferrato said. “I want people to love the holy spirit in every woman.” One night in 1982, Elisabeth stood up to her husband after getting rid of the drugs in their home in a bid to save their marriage, and Bengt “went berserk on her,” Ferrato recounts. What unfolded in the bathroom was horrific, she said, and Ferrato documented it all with her camera. One of her most well-known photographs shows Bengt striking Elisabeth. That night galvanized Ferrato to shine a light on the scourge of domestic abuse, she said.
What viewers will find in that photograph and others is something that subverts the idea of what a photograph can be: Ferrato’s writing directly on the image. Usually, a photograph will stand alone, and accompanying information will be displayed on a placard next to it. That is not the case in “Holy.”
