A CONTEXT OF ACCELERATED CHANGES
Socio-political shifts usually unfold gradually, allowing time for adaptation. However, abrupt events in history can trigger rapid changes, causing collective trauma. Over the past four years, such events have profoundly impacted our lives. Roman Tolici’s works reflect moments of uncertainty, adaptation, and the quest for balance in this context.
