We are happy to invite you to the opening of the exhibition “Dreams, Memories and Losses” by our member Olia Fedorova !

🗓️ 14th of June, 19:00

Olia Fedorova is the artist from Kharkiv, Ukraine, who is based in Graz since 2022. She works with the natural and urban landscapes of her home land and region using topographical maps as mediator instruments - as due to the Russian full scale invasion the real landscapes became either lost or inaccessible to her.

A map as a schematic, symbolic visualisation of a landscape, reduces towns and villages, rivers and roads, mountains and valleys to the constellations of abstract lines. It neither reflects all those tragic changes and ruination these landscapes went through in reality, nor it shows anyhow their resilience and will to survive.

But at the same time the map serves as an instrument of documentation of the landscapes, preserving them in the state they were once depicted. For that reason, says the artist, it makes the maps her perfect artistic tools - to mourn the losses, to reflect on memories and to daydream about her home’s better post-war future.

The exhibition unites several series of textile artworks created in frames of the Project Scholarship of the City of Graz 2025, with the support of Office Ukraine, Rotor and Land Steiermark.

ZIEGEL thanks Land Steiermark for their support in frames of the Kunstraum program!
