About the choice
About the past and present
About the things that might happen, but never happened
About the things we wanted, but were afraid of, and the things we not wanted, but did
About the future
About compelling circumstances and the path of least resistance
About responsibility
This is a project based on conversations with residents of the small village of
Travneve (Ternopil region, Ukraine). In my work, I raise the issue of the
disappearance of the Ukrainian village due to the hopelessness of the
residents - they do not see a future not only in their native village, but often in
Ukraine as a whole.
