Dnipro Centre for Contemporary Culture is giving away a T-shirt with ‘Pechnik’ embroidery for a donation

Dnipro Centre for Contemporary Culture is raffling off Anna Galasyuk's work ‘What Will Happen to You’ for a donation towards a car for volunteers.

The T-shirt with the embroidery ‘Pechnik’ is dedicated to a local phenomenon — this inscription can be found throughout Dnipro. The work is presented at a pop-up exhibition of a residence for young artists — by the way, tomorrow, 17 February, is the last day to see the exhibition.

"For me, as someone with experience of migration, it was important to reflect on the context of Dnipro. It has elements that are with me regardless of where I am. I want the city to be associated not with negative things like rockets and war, but with something positive. Pechnik is a rather positive and funny story," says the artist.

To participate in the raffle, you need to make a donation of at least 100 UAH to the jar.

All funds will be transferred to our colleague Kateryna Rusetska for a car for volunteers who deliver aid to civilians and military personnel in the Kherson and Donetsk regions.

The more donations you make, the greater your chances of winning. Be sure to include your Instagram username and name in the transfer comment so that we can contact you.

The results of the draw will be announced on 20 February.

The programme examines the colonial influence on several generations of Ukrainians from different angles of view, with particular attention to Dnipro and the eastern regions of Ukraine. Many of us grew up in an environment where Russian narratives dominated in education, in the media, and in the art. Today, we critically rethinking the contours and extent of this influence and learning to distinguish what is ours from what was imposed on us. This is not only a cultural process but also a personal one: a process of reclaiming an identity alienated by Moscow-centrism and russification.
