Exhibition Memory in Motion
Architecture of Perseverance by Bogdan Seredyak
Memory in Motion concept elaborates on the role of architecture in preserving collective memory and history. Created as a template rather than a solution, it highlights the challenges of rebuilding after a disaster while maintaining the native identity. Using Ukraine as a case study, machine learning algorithms were applied to create new architectural language for the future of the country. One that inspires future generations, yet, like a scar, makes us remember not to repeat mistakes of the past.
