All of the photographers in the collective are at different stages in their career, which makes<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In the Name of Freedom <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">exhibition so eclectic. I think they only had one other presentation as an organisation before their NFT project, which led to this exhibition right now.\u00a0 We actually found the \u2018Ukrainian Women Photographers Organisation\u2019 through Instagram. We saw a post by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/yanaphotoartist\/\">Yana Hryhorenko<\/a>, co-creater of the organization&#8217;s NFT project, which was a self portrait. When the war broke out, a fire just lit up inside Yana and she felt that the collective really had to do something and so they decided to put all their photos up on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/opensea.io\/collection\/uwpo\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OpenSea<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. They posted all over Instagram, and it fortunately made its way onto our feed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a non-for-profit cultural institution, we wanted to do something in reaction to the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Ukraine as we feel it\u2019s our responsibility to be socially and politically engaged. It was a very different process for us too; usually we\u2019re planning our exhibitions at least six months ahead but with this exhibition, we brought it together in three weeks. Although we\u2019re unable to make big financial contributions as a non-for-profit institution, we have an audience and are able to show support through awareness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"interview-question\"><i>S: Awareness is so crucial within the current situation, and to be able to create a discussion, a conversation, through imagery is very powerful. You\u2019re also working with the \u2018Be An Angel\u2019 organisation, a Berlin-based initiative that has been helping refugees since 2015. What made you choose \u2018Be An Angel\u2019 as the organisation to donate proceeds to? How can visitors donate?<\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TO: We had an important discussion about what kind of fundraiser we wanted to have and where the funds should be directed. We chose \u2018Be An Angel\u2019 because they\u2019ve already been working with refugees since 2015 and we liked that they were an organisation who are inclusive, working with refugees from all over the world. That was important to us. As an institution, we didn\u2019t want to position ourselves as prioritising certain people over others. So, \u2018Be An Angel\u2019 was the perfect charity for us. It was also important for us to stay local. All of our sponsors are local too, so it&#8217;s really a collaborative Berlin fundraiser, which just makes it all the more special.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At CHAUSSEE 36, visitors can buy physical prints of the photographs ranging from 150-500 and we also offer charity prints, which are priced at 50 to make the initiative accessible to all who would like to contribute. All proceeds from these prints will be donated directly to \u2018Be An Angel.\u2019 In the exhibition space, we also have a cafe\/bar where all the proceeds from drinks and snacks will too be donated.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":98562,"id":98562,"title":"Maria Petrenko_Ritual","filename":"Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","filesize":492086,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/in-the-name-of-freedom-a-collaboration-between-chaussee-36-and-the-ukrainian-women-photographers-organisation\/maria-petrenko_ritual\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"maria-petrenko_ritual","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":98516,"date":"2022-04-13 12:49:08","modified":"2022-04-13 13:06:51","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1067,"height":1600,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","thumbnail-width":64,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","medium-width":1067,"medium-height":1600,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","medium_large-width":1067,"medium_large-height":1600,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","large-width":1067,"large-height":1600,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual-1024x1536.jpg","1536x1536-width":1024,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","2048x2048-width":1067,"2048x2048-height":1600,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":8,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Maria-Petrenko_Ritual.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1067,"wpvr_mobile-height":1600}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"6","caption":"Maria Petrenko, 'Ritual,' 202."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_area","text_area":"<p class=\"interview-question\"><i>S: The \u2018Ukrainian Women Photographers Organisation\u2019 is also running this project online on OpenSea, where people can buy NFTs of the images. Can you tell us a little bit more about this<\/i><b><i>?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TO: As part of the organisation&#8217;s ongoing project with photography and bringing these women together to exhibit their work, the move to NFTs was their way to contribute in aid of the crisis. Not all of the women were in Ukraine at the time, but most of them were. Some were in hotspots, and some of them were in smaller towns and safer areas. I think collectively they were looking at which means they had to raise money for people that needed it, and the NFT medium was the most accessible. There\u2019s a distance between what they\u2019re doing and what we\u2019re doing. For them, it\u2019s this immediate need and the medium of NFTs has allowed them to raise money and connect with people across Ukraine and beyond. Through the proceeds from sold NFTs, the women have been supporting orphanages, animal shelters as well as their own journey to a safe place. There\u2019s no common thread between any of the images. Some of them were taken in 2013, others were taken on February 24th as a reaction to the start of the full-scale war. It\u2019s all very different styles of photography too, some are very experimental while others are more traditional, which I think makes the exhibition really interesting. An important point to note is that the women are living through two different realities. They\u2019ve got this incredibly traumatising reality that they\u2019re facing, but then they\u2019ve also got their photographic practices. Some are engaging with their previous life, their pre-war life and offering a glimpse into what their lives used to be. Through revisiting their archives and selecting images to present within the current climate, the women are creating a new perspective on the images. Others are creating work in a direct response to the situation. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cargocollective.com\/mariapetrenko\/Bio\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maria Petrenko<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019s self portrait is an example of one that was taken the day the war broke out, and you can really see this emotional reaction.

I think for them, it was more the NFT as a medium, rather than the decision between digital art versus physical art. It was circumstantial and not necessarily conceptual. It\u2019s the only accessible way in which these women were able to exhibit their work right now. Even the process of NFTs has been a struggle at times. They weren\u2019t always able to access the internet, and some had left their houses so they had to go back, which was difficult due to the curfews. I think for us the NFTs conversation is, of course, an interesting topic, but it&#8217;s not a conversation that we&#8217;ve even had. For us, it was about offering these women the chance to bring their work from the digital space into the physical, to bring awareness to both their NFTs project but also to extend their voice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":98518,"id":98518,"title":"Elena Subach_babusi004_small","filename":"Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","filesize":633701,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/in-the-name-of-freedom-a-collaboration-between-chaussee-36-and-the-ukrainian-women-photographers-organisation\/elena-subach_babusi004_small\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"elena-subach_babusi004_small","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":98516,"date":"2022-04-13 09:41:33","modified":"2022-04-13 13:07:16","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":850,"height":567,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","thumbnail-width":128,"thumbnail-height":85,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","medium-width":850,"medium-height":567,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","medium_large-width":850,"medium_large-height":567,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","large-width":850,"large-height":567,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","1536x1536-width":850,"1536x1536-height":567,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","2048x2048-width":850,"2048x2048-height":567,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":18,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elena-Subach_babusi004_small.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":850,"wpvr_mobile-height":567}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"10","caption":"Elena Subach, 'Babusi 004,' 2019."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_area","text_area":"<p class=\"interview-question\"><i>S: The diversity of these photographs, gathered from 25 artists, documents an intimate, tragic and surreal vision of a country that now finds itself at war.

The narratives and identities explored across the exhibition are currently in transition due to the circumstances, which I think is where this feeling of a surreal nostalgia, a kind of stillness, comes from.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"interview-question\"><i>S: What do you hope that \u2018In The Name of Freedom\u2019 will achieve?\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TO: I think, at the start of the war, people were really emotional about the things that they saw on the news. But I think, as time has gone on, people have become somewhat desensitised to it &#8211; but this doesn\u2019t mean it&#8217;s over. For us at CHAUSSEE 36 PHOTO FOUNDATION, it\u2019s about continuing the conversation, but it\u2019s also really about giving these women an opportunity, and they&#8217;re all really excited about it. That&#8217;s for sure. I think it gives them something to feel a sense of normalcy again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":98520,"id":98520,"title":"Xenia Petrovska _Personal Space_small","filename":"Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","filesize":623764,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/in-the-name-of-freedom-a-collaboration-between-chaussee-36-and-the-ukrainian-women-photographers-organisation\/xenia-petrovska-_personal-space_small\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"xenia-petrovska-_personal-space_small","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":98516,"date":"2022-04-13 09:41:37","modified":"2022-04-13 09:41:37","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":850,"height":850,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","thumbnail-width":96,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","medium-width":850,"medium-height":850,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","medium_large-width":850,"medium_large-height":850,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","large-width":850,"large-height":850,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","1536x1536-width":850,"1536x1536-height":850,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","2048x2048-width":850,"2048x2048-height":850,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":12,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xenia-Petrovska-_Personal-Space_small.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":850,"wpvr_mobile-height":850}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"10","caption":"Xenia Petrovska, 'Personal Space,' 2019."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_area","text_area":"<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the Name of Freedom<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is available to view until 1 May 2022 at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chaussee36.photography\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chaussee 36 Photo Foundation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
