Kateryna Krokha
Kateryna Krokha is one of the artists selected for APOSTAXIS, a programme of residencies, co-creation workshops and exhibitions exploring resonances between Ukraine and Cyprus's histories of displacement. Her artistic practice is rooted in personal and collective experiences shaped by displacement, working at the intersection of visual art, text, and research to explore home, language, and memory as living, evolving entities.
Kateryna’s artistic practice is rooted in personal and collective experiences shaped by displacement. With a Master’s degree in Sociology and a background in literature, she works at the intersection of visual art, text, and research. Combining experimental video, documentary storytelling, and text-based installations, she explores home, language, and memory as living, evolving entities. Her work often involves minimal technical resources and reflects a strong interest in creating from what already exists. She engages with communities – especially youth – treating art as a tool for connection and shared meaning-making. She was active in animal rights advocacy, contributing for over a year to projects focused on ethical awareness. During a trip to the active war zone in southern Ukraine, she shot a documentary about Kherson. Projects like the poetry game “Mosaic” show her interest in alternative forms of communication, while her documentary work invites others into the collective process of remembering. For Kat, art is a dialogue and an attempt to pay attention to overlooked places, lives that often remain unseen and a rare point of view.
