Rybachka brings together artists from different disciplines and backgrounds to honour collective resilience and speculative folklore. For the first edition, which premiered at CTM, I brought together collaborations between Ukrainian musician Katarina Gryvul and Peruvian multimedia artist Alex Guevara, and between the Syrian-Ukrainian multidisciplinary artist Diana Azzuz and the Iranian musician and artist Nazanin Noori.
More about my vision behind Rybachka in "The History of Our Bodies,” my article commissioned as part of CTM 2023 – Portals.
