The forty-four-month siege of Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, is one of the most terrible pages of modern military history, where the number of civilians killed is estimated at tens of thousands. 30 years have passed, but the need to preserve the memory and continue to reflect on various aspects of the postwar experience remains.

The exhibition consists of photographs and commentaries collected by Dzvinka Pinchuk in Bosnia and Herzegovina as part of the BOSNIA:UKRAINE Reporting from the Future, Warm foundation project in April 2024. Having talked to people of different ages, status, gender, professions and religions about their experiences with the war and its aftermath, the artist began her own research on the impact of war on language, which includes observations of the Ukrainian language today.
