To honor the indomitable spirit of Polish mountaineering Wanda Rutkiewicz, the Institute for IDEAS recreated pivotal moments from Rutkiewicz's historical ascent of Mount Everest as holographic recordings. Three virtual and augmented reality scenes bring Wanda's awe-inspiring journey to life, transporting viewers into the world of one of history's most iconic female climbers.

One of the scenes depicts Wanda Rutkiewicz fearlessly traversing an ice-covered pass on her Everest expedition. The hologram showcases Wanda's careful steps across treacherous terrain, immersing viewers in her challenges and the breathtaking beauty surrounding her. Another scene catapults viewers into the heart-stopping moment when Wanda fearlessly scaled the icy precipice.
