The premiere that won’t happen

The exhibition explores the theme of interrupted cultural heritage in Ukraine — generations that were unable to write their own history due to repression, war, and colonial policy.
“The play was not written because Ukrainian writers were destroyed. Burnt out, uprooted generations through time and to this day. But where everything is destroyed, life sprouts again” — Tetyana Ovsiychuk
At the center of the statement is genetic memory, ritual as a form of survival, voices that return through art.
