The exhibition, which is taking place at the Museum of Theatre, Music and Cinema Arts of Ukraine, is the third exhibition of the project "Ukrainian Theatre Costume of the XX-XXI Centuries: Identity, Context, Landscape", and all the artists participating in the project took part in it.

The project offers a look at Ukrainian theatre costume, and with it, Ukrainian theatre and Ukrainian art in general, abandoning the optics of the Soviet or Russian context and the connotations that were aggressively imposed by imperial propaganda in previous years.
