Documenting Ukraine Grants

Hotel Ukraine

Hotel Ukraine is a research project that includes a photography series, interviews and an art installation as potential outcome. I explore locations that traditionally used to provide temporary accommodation, such as hotels, hostels, and resorts, but now offer shelter to Ukrainians displaced by the full-scale invasion. I capture these places and document Ukrainians and their everyday life in Austrian recreation areas. My goal is to explore how people who lack a secure place to call home reorganize their temporary environment, adapt to it and adjust their needs accordingly. All work is carried out with permission of the individuals involved and full respect for their privacy.
