[ENG] Kitchen Conversations with Open Group
Manage episode 450743121 series 3352585
EP. 59 [overdubbed] - in conversation with Open Group - a Ukrainian art collective representing Poland at the 60th La Biennale di Venezia.
In this episode, Patrycja sits down with Yuriy Biley and Anton Varga, two members of Open Group, to explore their thought-provoking audiovisual installation, Repeat after Me II.
This powerful work serves as a collective portrait of civilian witnesses to the ongoing war in Ukraine. Featuring two videos created in 2022 and 2024, the installation presents refugee stories through the haunting sounds of weaponry they recall. Using a unique karaoke format, the piece invites viewers to mimic these sounds, teaching them to identify weapons by ear—a skill that could, in a dystopian future, be the key to survival.
