Künstler*innenhaus Mousonturm

SONIAKH is an online publication amplifying voices and visions from Ukraine, and those of Ukraine’s allies and neighbours – artists, activists, and scholars. Its main goal is to counter misinformation, disinformation, negative stereotypes and propaganda that obfuscate, relativize and undermine the efforts of Ukrainians to defend themselves against the Russian colonial invasion and its worldwide propaganda machine. SONIAKH reinvents the journalistic tradition of the ‘digest’ as an outlet where information, analysis and artistic production are summarised and amplified for a broad public. In the context of “Bodies, un-protected”, contributors to the platform will be present with video statements from and about Ukraine. The question of the body and protection will be reflected through the conditions that surround people living in the war zone, questioning the perception of relative safety in an environment that is per se unsafe.

The screening will be followed by a workshop facilitated by Mariia Vorotilina that aims at developing ways of understanding the experiences, perspectives and tools shared by the SONIAKH contributors.
