"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

Installation
wood, plastic, paper

Bratkov's installation Boxes stages the setting for some of his child related series in the M HKA collection, such as Bedtime Stories and Kids (Children). Colourful children's drawers and cabinets are spread over the space, their doors playfully left ajar. A peek inside soon reveals an ominous reality: each of the drawers is hiding a little scene of an 'abused' toy.
