Chaplaincy is central to the established model of incarceration in Canada, in which the government provides some religious programming to aid in the “correction” of people convicted of crimes. Departing from the Christian formula of criminal justice based on the contrition and repentance of individuals, religious visitation can empower minority religious practitioners behind bars with the resilience and numinous tools to resist their jailers. The Prison Witch is a storytelling session based on visual artist Jamie Ross’ experience making religious visits to Pagan inmates in federal prisons in Quebec, with a brief history of minority religious chaplaincy in Canada. The session will close in the field outside the gallery with the opportunity to join in a group catharsis exercise using the body and voice. Wild-crafted herbal tea will be served.
