Lecture by Tetiana Kochubinska “Feel Your Way: Art That Gives Voice”
On Wednesday, November 12 at 18:30, we invite you to attend a lecture by Tetiana Kochubinska, “Feel Your Way: Art That Gives Voice,” as part of the public program accompanying Gabrielle Goliath’s exhibition “Personal Accounts.”
The event will take place on the 2nd floor of PinchukArtCentre, in the exhibition space. Participation is free with prior registration. The number of seats is limited.
The lecture will explore how art can serve as a tool for visibility, support, and giving voice to those whom society often fails to hear.
Drawing on Gabrielle Goliath’s exhibition “Personal Accounts,” we will discuss the potential of art to bring to light marginalized, hidden, or taboo subjects. The focus will be primarily on the practices and personal experiences of women artists, and how their artworks can create spaces of empathy, solidarity, and mutual care.
The conversation will touch upon issues of violence, silencing of experience, and how art can grant voice — personal, collective, and political.
