Yaroslav

My miniature is dedicated to the Kharkiv metro stations, which became a shelter for many at the beginning of the war, transforming into a sort of dormitory for those whose normal lives were shattered by the conflict. This situation demonstrated that the underground could become a home, with lobbies turning into children’s spaces, carriages into apartments, and platforms into social areas. The people who took refuge here recreated the model of coexistence from the city above ground, mirroring all the processes of their former everyday lives in the underground.
