From the Mother Tongue Shapeshifting & Reclaiming collection.
Nominated by Emerging Tech Designer & Storyteller Savannah Kunovsky |
"A time capsule of Ukrainian art and creativity in response to war, preserving a culture that Russia is attempting to erase." |
Ukrainian spiritual-artistic resilience manifesto. Creativity of the Brave is a visual reflection of the reality in which Ukrainians live since February 24, 2022. The design of the magazine embodied many attributes of war. Explosions and smoke, checkpoint intersections between sections. Page numbering starting at 05:00 on February 24, when people began to wake up to the explosions across the country. Air alarms, light masking, a font indicating where to shelter with an arrow. The magazine reveals the image of the Ukrainian creative community: personal stories of people who found themselves in occupation, in evacuation, at the front.
Borrow, share, exchange as you wish, and return by the end of the season on February 6th. Pick up at the gallery anytime, and return and swap for a new book of your choosing. To our global friends - online borrowing is possible, just pay for the shipping there and back.
The Mother Tongue Library is a love letter to the thinkers, writers, and artists who’ve given us the language of courage when we needed it most.
