Registration required! Please register at office.innsbruck|at]artistshelp-ukraine.at!

The workshop in the context of the Ukrainian Arts & Crafts event invites participants to come together, exchange ideas, and reflect on creative expression. What is essential for finding creative inspiration? How can we find new support and energy when stability and previous support networks break away?
The workshop is designed for creative minds from different countries, backgrounds and life situations. Together, the workshop participants will create an artwork that will then be displayed during the event immediately following the workshop (15:00 – 20:00).
Sophia Martseniuk (*1993) grew up among artists in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine. She studied at the Pedagogical College, Department of Fine Arts, took drawing lessons at the Kharkiv Art Institute, studied jewelry art in Odesa, took photography classes and worked as an art teacher for children and adults. In her current artistic practice, Sophia mainly works with photography, drawing on psychological and anthropological concepts. Since 2022, Sophia lives in Tyrol.
