Antiwarcoalition.art presents a selection of videoworks from its digital platform as part of the international project Sense of Safety and the exhibition at the YermilovCentre in Kharkiv. This screening creates a Bridge of Solidarity with the city and communities enduring daily shelling. Today, September 1, marked as an anti war day, holds special significance. It is crucial for us to bring awareness about the city of Kharkiv, a part of world heritage being transformed into a gray zone by constant bombings, as well as to remind people about ongoing wars, where violence and destruction are becoming a part of everyday life, and to highlight the human cost of war’s aftermath.
For today's Antiwar Day, “Antiwarcoalition.art” presents a special program in the following 20 minutes. You will see and hear video works as part of the international project “Sense of Safety” and an exhibition at the Yermilov Center in the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. This screening creates a “Bridge of Solidarity” with the city and the communities that are under daily attack. The international exhibition project aims to draw attention to the city of Kharkiv, which has been turned into a gray zone by constant bombardment. It aims to remind people of the ongoing wars, in which violence and destruction are part of everyday life, and to highlight the human cost of the consequences of war.
Participating artists:

Aza Nizi Maza: Children's Freedom in a Frontline City presents a selection of children’s drawings from the Aza Nizi Maza studio in Kharkiv. This presentation creates a Bridge of Solidarity within the international project Sense of Safety and the exhibition in the YermilovCentre in Kharkiv. Founded in 2012, the studio taught more than 1000 students. During the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the studio became a bomb shelter. It initiated art projects with children sheltering in metro stations. In June 2022, as the metro reopened, the studio resumed classes, providing a safe space for children, including those with mental disorders, to create and express through art. This presentation showcases capacity to maintain hope and demonstrate resilience and creativity in the adversity of war.
Despite the adversities of war, the studio provides a space for children to develop and express themselves artistically, encouraging their ability to maintain hope, show resilience and creativity. The presentation put together by Antiwarcoalition.art forms a Bridge of Solidarity as part of the international Sense of Safety project and the exhibition at the YermilovCentre in Kharkiv
