‘Хочу щоб всі залишились живими. (I WANT EVERYONE TO STAY ALIVE.)’ is a small publication, containing stories sent by Ukrainians and those based in Ukraine, who have shared their experiences. I am incredibly humbled to have been trusted by the individuals who shared their stories. Read the publication and translations of Ukrainian testimonies here.

These stories were given via the anonymous portal (still accepting stories) set up by Nicola Anthony Studios in order to create artworks which give voice to Ukraine, and hear individual people rather than of the statistics we hear in the news.

During the course of collecting stories we realised that disseminating these stories and letting them be heard as widely as possible was important. So rather than just becoming part of a sculpture (where part of its nature is abstraction), they are also presented in a publication which will be given away free at the exhibition ‘On The Edge’ at Espacio Gallery this March.
