My name is Kseniia, I am a 4th year Ukrainian international student of the bachelor's interior design in OCADU. In my projects, I investigate the relationship of space, culture and identity. A special place in my practice is the work with historical memory and emotional influence of architecture on humans.My thesis work is devoted to the creation of a Ukrainian exhibition center in Toronto - a space that not only presents Ukrainian culture, but also forms an emotional connection between generations and communities.Through this project, I seek how architecture can be a bearer of collective memory and a tool of cultural diplomacy. In further professional activity, I plan to develop topics of interaction of public space and national identity.
