The digital collage series “Everyday Life.” In progress, 2024.

​

In a world where war collides with daily routine, new tools of adaptation and resilience are formed. The collages depict ordinary life — ordinary people engaged in ordinary actions — set against the backdrop of flying missiles. Danger alerts from mobile applications and Telegram groups symbolically grow like mushrooms in response to the neighbors’ daily attacks. And so it happens every day.

These scenes strike through the contrast between everyday normalcy and the tension hanging in the air. Yet even in the most difficult conditions, people find inner strength and calm, which can be symbolically traced in the colors of the collages.

The routine preserved in these simple actions becomes an essential element in maintaining mental health. Through everyday practices, people attempt to create a bubble of safety where hope and a sense of normality can still be sustained.
