The idea of inviting artists represented by LYSENKO Gallery to create fashion pieces emerged after experienced the remarkable success of the first coat designed by Anastasiia Podervianska (St. Michael). The piece drew extraordinary attention, transforming a personal garment into a living work of art.
This was our first experimental attempt to bring an artist, whose primary practice is in fine art, into the world of fashion. It resulted in a professional collaboration with our fashion stylist Nikita Gudzovsky and exceptional Ukrainian artisans specializing in hand embroidery.
The creation of sketches came naturally to the artists, and the team watched with admiration as each idea was born and brought to life. This once again confirms that an academically trained artist possesses a remarkable depth of vision and mastery.

The phenomenon of “New Earth” is not simply a move to another geographical space. Rather, it means the meeting of psyche, memory, and culture with a place that has not yet had time to become “one’s own.” The new Earth raises questions about everyday life: How do you live when familiar landmarks begin to crumble? How do you rebuild rhythms—time, routes, language? And how do you preserve inner coherence while also allowing yourself to change?
Three artists — Artem Volokitin, Anna Moskalez, and Tanya Vassilenko — encounter this phenomenon in Berlin and translate their personal experience into a visual language. The works presented in the exhibition do not offer ready-made answers. Instead, they show the process: how a new perspective takes shape, how memory becomes a material, and how cultural codes find their own rhythm and sound. In these works, the tension of adaptation is palpable; at the same time, there is the gradual emergence of inner points of stability — from the feeling of being foreign toward a step-by-step rootedness.
