We are delighted to announce Home Beyond the Dawn at Expo 2025 Osaka, a multichannel immersive video installation that brings together the works of over 30 Ukrainian contemporary artists to reflect on the evolving concept of home during wartime.
First shown as a large-scale exhibition in Guadalajara, Mexico (2023–2024) curated by Natalia Matsenko, Home Beyond the Dawn is reimagined in Osaka as a multiscreen environment. Combining video, photography, animation, sound, and digitally reconstructed spaces, the project creates a layered and emotionally resonant narrative of loss, resilience, and imagination. The exhibition will be accompanied by public discussions and interactive workshops.
On view August 1–12 at the Romania Pavilion (
@romaniaexpo2025 ), Expo 2025 Osaka
