Habituation. Habituation, translated from Greek, means getting used to. In my project, it specifically addresses habituation to war on one hand, and to comfortable living on the other. In both cases, a person exposes themselves to danger, losing vigilance regardless of the conditions they are in. Over time, habituation occurs and concentration on conditions diminishes, which can lead to ignoring danger and losing alertness, resulting in psychological or physical harm. Thus, during war, ignoring (habituation and devaluation) of air raid alarms can lead to death or injury. And getting accustomed to peaceful, routine life can lead to stress when war strikes. The series "Habituation" speaks of both threat and possibility. War can come anytime, anywhere, to any family or country. And war can destroy not only lives but also any modern architecture. Any street in the world can quickly turn into ruins. But even amidst ruins, a new city can be built with modern, beautiful architecture, as was the case after World War II with Warsaw, which was completely destroyed during the battle between German and Polish forces in 1939. Therefore, in this series, each image features two photographs: modern Warsaw and the destroyed buildings of Irpin, Bucha, and Borodyanka. Photos from Ukraine were provided by Oleg Pereverziev, which he took in the early days of the liberation of the occupied territories, documenting the widespread torture and destruction by the Russian army of Ukrainian people and territories in March-April 2022. The second part of the photos was created by me in Warsaw in July 2022. The project was created within the framework of the Start Foundation artistic residency in June-August 2022 in Warsaw. An exhibition was opened in August 2022 as a result of the residency. Additionally, the project participated in a group exhibition at Ujazdowski Castle in Poland in Warsaw in October 2022. The project was featured on Ukrainian Radio in Poland with an interview with the author in August 2022. In February 2024, the project was presented at a group exhibition at the People's House in Przemyśl, Poland.
