The installation “Soul” is a reflection of the energy of creation of the Ukrainian people - alive, creative, formative. Using light effects, like intangible paints, we wanted to reflect the artist's subtle experience in the creative process, which will later turn into a masterpiece.

In addition to beauty, it is important for us to convey an important social message through our own work and creativity. The choice of St. Nicholas Cathedral for the installation after the fire has not only aesthetic and cultural value, but also a deep symbolic meaning, which aims to raise awareness of the importance of preserving historical monuments and supporting their restoration.

The facade of the church was chosen to be illuminated for Kyiv Design Week due to its unique architecture, which harmoniously combines historical significance with aesthetic expressiveness. The building is one of the most recognizable examples of the neo-Gothic style in Ukraine, which successfully emphasizes the relationship between tradition and modern design solutions.

In addition, the church is located in the heart of the capital, and the Toronto-Kyiv complex offers maximum visibility. It draws attention to the event, promoting the popularization of design as an art form and cultural dialogue.
