ReFusion

Collage of many historical pictures with contemporary overlays. The primary image — the steel statue of Mother Ukraine is overlayed with a flower head piece and a heavy Ukrainian necklace.

ReFusion is an online art exhibition made to support queer people during the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops.

It fuses traditional Ukrainian culture with queer art and symbols. It refuses Russian and Soviet culture forced on Ukraine in the past.
