35: Monument

35 Years of Ukrainian Independence

For Ukrainian Independence Day tomorrow (August 24, 1991) the Motherland Monument in Kyiv launched a five-minute audiovisual art installation titled "The Future Remembers."

The Project tells the story of Ukrainian History and Identity through light, symbols, and music.

During the projection, the Monument displayed changing images that reference various periods in the History of Ukraine, including Cossack embroidery, Crimean Tatar ornaments, and motifs of Greek, Scythian, and Slavic cultures.
