"There are no tyrannies that would not try to limit art, because they can see the power of art. Art can tell the world things that cannot be shared otherwise. It is art that conveys feelings."

 - Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the President of Ukraine

For her sound installation Unities,  Anna Zvyagintseva has gathered people’s voices at public protests and put them all into a pot to 'stew', as if it was a witchy potion. By doing so, the artist attempted to overcome the fear that arises when she encounters aggressive voices in the political arena.
