Dziouchy: The Art of Polish Silesian Decorations
Dziouchy: The Art of Polish Silesian Decorations
It’s Easter in Silesia, Poland, and that means one thing—Dziouchy! 🥚✨ This centuries-old tradition sees young women crafting intricately painted Easter eggs (pisanki) using a wax-resist technique passed down for generations. Each egg is more than just decoration—it’s a symbol of heritage, craftsmanship, and community. 💛 Watch as master artisans bring these vibrant designs to life, keeping a Polish folk tradition alive! 🇵🇱

Adam Pluta
Poland
Adam began his journey in filmmaking as a volunteer at a local art house cinema in his home country of Poland. After a few years, he was offered his first job as a Mobile Cinema Venture partner, working as a projection technician and logistics coordinator.
A few successful years later, he acquired a DCP projector and launched a Commercial Mobile Cinema Venture, traveling from city to city, bringing the latest movies to places without a stationary digital cinema.
After 15 years in the industry as a filmmaker, Adam realized that his one true passion was cinema.
He has worked on various educational projects, is an editor for a National TV program in Poland, and is currently employed as a Digital Media Specialist for Poland’s largest cinema network, Helios. Having an opportunity to show some of his passion makes Adam incredibly proud.
