Since emotional instability and daily self-reconstruction are now my fellow travelers between EU and UA, I set out to look for descriptions to indescribables, anew. Addressing social and emotional experience through direct speech practices has already been my focus before, when creating conditions or scripts for unusual interactions. Yet this residency is an amazing opportunity to go further, and perhaps even to somehow document an extreme state of mind. My radio art project embraces conversations about the unspeakable as an attempt to grasp the phenomenon of war through the emotions that people live through on the ground in Ukraine as compared to those lived in areas of peacetime.
