Athletes of Art in Milan
Dariia Tsarenko and I were included in Athletes of Art in Milan, an international exhibition project connecting artists from Ukraine and Italy as part of the cultural program surrounding Milano Cortina 2026.
Our collaborative work, PAVUK: Lichtarchitektur der Erneuerung, transforms the traditional Ukrainian Pawuk into a contemporary spatial installation. Built from recycled paper based tubes and reclaimed textile materials, the piece brings fragile geometry, light, and suspended pom poms into dialogue with themes of protection, renewal, memory, and cultural continuity.
The larger project brought together more than 80 artists and over 120 artworks, forming a living exchange between Ukraine and Italy and showing how art can remain a space for courage, connection, and resistance.
