In a time of destruction, uncertainty and constant threats, values are changing. Materiality is being undermined by reality every day, and the ephemerality of performance becomes an even more expressive living sign for the “now”. Presence, which we constantly talk about in performance art, is now taking on a sacred meaning because it is about life. Energy, color, temperature as a sign and evidence of “being”. And we come back to the body. The wounds and vulnerability of the body, the physical, mental, historical, and memory body. “Camouflage has become a layer that sticks to the body, it has become a ‘mental tattoo’-you can try to remove it, erase it, but it will leave a trace.”
The fluidity and impermanence of the performance as a lighthouse light. The message has been sent.
The SNRA residence draws attention to the role of culture and art during the russian-Ukrainian war, aims to implement institutionally critical projects related to cultural heritage (tangible and intangible), development of artistic-cultural institutions.
The SNRA residency program, the Yaryna Shumska’s participation and her project were implemented thanks to the grant support from The Académie des beaux-arts in Paris (French Academy of Fine Arts)
