Look Again

is a group exhibition created as part of my Master in Photography and Design at Elisava. Over four weeks, our group of eleven international artists explored the streets around the Can Framis Museum with intention, presence, and curiosity. The exhibition invites visitors to look closer, move slower, and rediscover public space as a site of quiet transformation, imagination, and connection.

Conceived and produced for Fundació Vila Casas, located in Can Framis Museum, Barcelona

Invisible colonisation

is a personal project presented as a part of The Unseen exhibition at Nau Bostik.

The work reflects on the subtle, often hidden ways in which empires attempt to erase national identity—shaping language, culture, and the sense of self.

I grew up speaking Russian without questioning it. After 2022, I began to understand how deeply this language had been used as a tool of cultural suppression, quietly distancing me from my Ukrainian identity. This project is not about war; it is about a slow, intimate process of decolonization. A presence that enters our homes, thoughts, and everyday life—familiar on the surface, yet carrying loss and control underneath.

Through photography, AI-generated imagery, archival material, and family photographs, I construct a visual narrative that uncovers what is usually unseen: the hidden codes embedded within us, and the quiet work of reclaiming them.
