‘Tapestry of Many Voices’ is a physical and digital/audio tapestry of Ukrainian stories, memories, dreams, and all that lies in between; a tactile exploration of storytelling as a means of (re)constructing folklore in times of crisis.

Developed across three different countries  (Ukraine, The United Kingdom, and Estonia) via a series of workshops, this tapestry represents something that, in response to the relentless plundering of Ukrainian art by Russian forces, cannot be destroyed or taken: something rooted in, and generative of, knowledge, memory, and connection.

The creation of an accompanying audio tapestry is intended to further safeguard the permanence of this contemporary folklore, translating the stories and testimonies shared into the security of a medium further shielded by its immateriality.
