Curators

The sculpture “Man longing for the future” by Sergei Barannik reminds the figure of a man with two wings. Where one wing is earthly matter, the other, not tied to the ground symbolizes harmony and spirituality.

While preparing for making the sculpture for Bila Tserkva, Plácido Rodríguez Bonnín made his research over the situation in Ukraine. Reconsidering distress and traumatic events, that the country was subjected to, the artist believes that even in the toughest times a person is able to withstand and revive.

The sculpture “Joy” by Michael Levchenko is an image of a man, whose natural desire is to be happy. The feeling of happiness is formed from daily joyful moments and positive emotions, which are symbolized by simple geometrical shapes joined together.

The title of the work, "Mass instruction weapon" is coming from the widely used expression “Mass destruction weapon”. You see a book on wheels that resembles an image of a cannon.

The sculpture "Lyrical Message" is created by the Turkish artist Ilker Yardimci especially for Bila Tserkva. His artworks are lyrical poems which he is creating in the public space. The artist believes that cities can be compared to a living organisms. They grow and change. Streets, boulevards, buildings are organic parts of the city. Art in the public spaces, in his opinion, is the soul of the city and its memory.
