Exhibition “Time caresses its children” by artist Jan Bachynsky
On May 10, the opening of the exhibition by Jan Bachynski, “Time caresses its Children,” took place as part of the annual Spilne Art program in the Peremoga space.
A solo exhibition by artist, curator, and director Jan Bachynski — about sadness that turns into joy, about things that come back to life. In his practice, the artist works with fabric bas-reliefs, sculptures, videos, and his personal archive — in particular, with clothing that survived exile, war, and the return home.
The series of works began as a diary of wartime exile. The sculptures were created from fragments of everyday life, from abandoned and found objects — primarily from the author’s own clothing. After returning home, the artist’s attention switched to the material itself — to an attempt to revive the unlived: ancient, modern, personal, and alien. This is a story about efforts to assemble a disintegrating world, about individual resistance, and contemplation of entropy.
The exhibition lasted from May 10 to June 14 in the Peremoga space, at Yaroslaviv Val, 15.
