I am here

Series of performance art workshops with teenagers and students.

The workshops were an attempt to create a meeting point for young people, reveal and develop their creative potential, encourage participants for expressing their thoughts, ideas, and interests through performance art.

Perform Yourself

Workshops with the teenagers.

8-29 June 2022. Artistic Council "Dialogue". Pidzamche district, Lviv, Ukraine.

The goal of the project was to talk to teenagers who shape our tomorrow and our future today.

This idea appeared before the 24th of February. We wanted to give the graduates of 2022 who spent the last two years in isolation because of covid-19 a space to express themselves. And we decided to do this project here and now because it is even more valuable today. At the end of the project, everyone presented their ideas in the form of individual performance.

Performance art became a tool to take a step toward fears, insecurities, and internal and external experiences. Very different people came to see the results of the creative work - parents and representatives of the creative community of Lviv, random passers-by, and residents of Pidzamche.

21 May, 11 June 2022. Avignon, Arles, France.

Extract:
Do you remember the green men in the south, in Crimea?
They said they weren't there.
Do you remember the green men from the east, in the Donbas?
They said they weren't there.
Do you remember the tanks in the east?  They said they weren't there.
Do you remember the last eight years?
They said they weren't there.
They are never anywhere.
But where did they lose the truth?

Magic Carpets #4

Workshops with the local inhabitants.

14-16 May 2021.

Terra Mater. Latitudo Art Projects.

Corviale. Rome, Italy.

Corviale is a building, district or even city in the city that has an incredible soul. Sometimes it is grey, sometimes colourful, loud and silent, with pain and full of joy... Corviale has a lot of contrast that can not leave anyone indifferent... It is a place of truth, and it inspires.

Co-curator. 

November - December 2020.

In collaboration with Iryna Kharlamova. Online residency. Ukraine. 2020

We meet each other and we create a dialogue, we talk. The like-minded and opposed thoughts, ideas and energy move the process to progress. 

Special conditions of the residence, due to its virtuality, united six participants ( Anton Kariuk, Volodymyr Topiy, group Zabih, Natalia Lisova, Yuriy Shtaida, Valentyna Petrova), and their presence led to the emergence of works with different contexts, experiences and interactions. Such situations go beyond one residency and build a precondition for new artistic collaborations.

The residency initiated an online platform "Archive: performance art of Ukraine".

18 December 2020

Gallery LNAM, Lviv, Ukraine.

The event is a result of the students’ work during the lectures in the optional course "Fundamentals of Performance Art" in the Lviv National Academy of Art. Performance as an art form that directly interacts with time caused the title of the event.

It is an open laboratory that gives an occasion to interact with the audience, to feel the energy that accumulates at the moment of the contact with the public.
