ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Continuing individual and collaborative artistic practices, the participants created 9 projects that reveal their way of living the war personally and as members of larger and smaller communities.
Artists face death, destruction, and the impossibility of returning home or to the “before” state. Loss of security, home, loved ones – all of this prompts us to re-answer the question of who we are. Artists are looking for ways to talk about their traumas through the voices of animals, mutilated fields, strange creatures, natural and supernatural forms. The way to salvation here is the preservation of sensitivity to oneself and the world, the ability to sympathize, preserve memory, find connections and talk about common things.
