Transcultural Compostions
Transcultural Compositions is an artistic research project that takes place across Austria and Ukraine. It is centered around the ornamental and musical compositions of Ukrainian architect Vasyl Krychevskyi and Austrian composer Arnold Schönberg. Using an experimental approach, the artists explore visual and spatial patterns in music and rhythmic structures in ornaments. These elements are then translated into various artistic mediums, such as movement, imagery, and sound.

The Project is kindly Supported by Culture Moves Europe.
HEY, HAY!
Dance performance HEY, HAY! | ZDRAVO, SENO! brings the spontaneity of nature
(which attributes no meaning to national borders) into the theatre. Through the poetics
of folklore, rituals, customs, and habits mixed with live electronic music, the performers
explore common roots, understanding and imagination of rural life and dismantle the
idyllic, romantic idea of nature. Their multifaceted encounter will occur in an unusual
intersection of the rural and the artistic, where the dance will be recognised as work and
the countryside as performative potential
After Six Before Eight
“After six before eight” is an experimental evening that brings artists of different disciplines together in order to create an instant composition performance in collaboration with each other, audience and space. The goal of this event is to blur the lines between creator and spectator, fostering a sense of community and shared experience. Kindly hosted by Rooming Inn
A game of hide and seek with Mr.Lyatoshynsky
A game of hide and seek with Mr. Lyatoshynsky is a residency project that took place in Vienna at the Bears in the Park studio. A group of interdisciplinary artists from Ukraine came into a collaboration with PUC Collective to work on an idea for the interactive site-specific performance.
POVZINE
POV is an interdisciplinary digital zine that offers artists from a wide range of disciplinesthe opportunity for presentation, exchange, discussion and inspiration.
With two publications annually, in spring and fall, each thematically dedicated to a different focus, POV presents different creative positions and content perspectives in the form of a wide variety of digital formats and diverse media.
SENSES
Senses is a new work that resulted from the collaboration between Pop Up Collective and ensemble Brainchild. The piece consists of five smaller works produced by smaller teams drawn from the larger pool of artists. Each work was initially oriented toward one of the basic senses, but teams were otherwise left free to explore the topic without influence from one another. As the project progressed, it became clear that the senses are not easily divorced from one another. The interplay between the senses became an important theme, with each of the five works offering a different perspective.
DREAMSCRAPER
dreamscraper - is a performative collage that explores the layers of inscription of a female gaze in a poetic, dreamlike set up. The work embodies the poems of a feminist Iranian writer Forough Farrokhzad and re-enacts/echoes images, actions and archetypes that pass through the journey of a female protagonist. She is a meeting point of the plurality of external forces but at the same time, a desire of ultimate freedom and independence. Her voice appears to be singular on the exterior and plural on the interior. Once it has been uttered, she enters a loop of transformation that re-defines her standpoint.
