Róża jerychońska
Rose of Jericho

Summary/Abstract: A study dealing with time, space, and corporeal experiences in conditions of instability. The author applies the reflective analysis method, combining personal observations with the most recent conceptions launched by Ukrainian researchers and men of letters as well as cultural and ideological conceptions introduced by Zygmunt Bauman, Walter Benjamin, and Jean-Paul Sartre. Attention is focused on the phenomena of “living on the edge”, enhanced temporality, and art envisaged as testimony. Prime material consists of works by contemporary Ukrainian artists and their experiences involving the redefinition of contacts, losses, and new aesthetics in wartime conditions.
