Photobook
Authors: Yevgen Nikiforov & Polina Baitsym

Language(s): Ukrainian / English
Publisher: ist publishing
The archive, collected between 2013 and 2023 and conceived as a book in 2019, presents mosaics by unknown authors in a state of half-decay—when they have already lost their initial glow, are decaying, or are disappearing into the lower layers of facades and city panoramas. The book focuses on naïve mosaics as a phenomenon that raises questions about memory and space, past and present, self-expression and imitation, and captures the fragility of the monumental, which, like chips, eventually became crumbs at the bottom of the package.

Visual identity
Alevtina Kakhidze’s art project curated by Oksana Dolgopolova and Kateryna Semenyuk is focused on working through the imperial past, a matter of relevance for Ukraine and Malta alike. It symbolically connects Malta with Odesa—the gateway city that connects the Ukrainian steppe to the Mediterranean—and invites visitors to look from Malta in the direction of Ukraine, from South to North. This optic presents the port city of Odesa as being located not in the south of the Russian/Soviet empire but rather in the north of the Mediterranean region (more)
