Main focus of Dzherelo is to showcase contemporary video-art & performance & experimental music open to the public 24/7. During the dark times when Kyiv space could not take a risk to host the public due to massive Russian attacks – The Source starts to look for safe spaces for free expression and raise awareness of cultural exchange.
Nomadic Source arrives on 24.06.2023 at C. Rockefeller Center for the Arts with the special program. You will have a unique chance to discover Ukrainian queer multimedia-artist Plisetskiy and a performative collective Kvirtet.

The program will begin with Vladyslav Plisetskiy film screening and online discussion with Dana Kosmina. The film will infect the viewer with the spirit of resilience and give strength to survive by showcasing voices of Kyiv underground resistance from the streets, artist studios till the night clubs – »What You will do when the War starts?« The continuation of the evening by Kvirtet collective will envelop you in a total visual-audio performance. Dramaturgie builds on a unique poem written by Boji in 2023, describing her childhood hallucination (of giant roll twists), combined with the collective members’ vivid dreams, which slowly grow in a unified joint queer-mare – »One by one«.

One by one

artists: Boji Moroz, Dim, Dimettra, Sasha Malyuk

KVIRTET is a queer collective from Kyiv, Ukraine. Unifying the artistic, performative, singing and fashion backgrounds of the four members, Kvirtet provides spectacular contemporary shows. Collective’s performances feature live music, marvelous dresses and magnificent vocals in Ukrainian and English. As a consequence of Russia’s full- scale invasion of Ukraine, Kvirtet is now based in Berlin, but remains active throughout Europe.

Kvirtet will present a musical performance »One by one«.
The performance is built on the poem written by Boji in 2023, describing her childhood’s hallucination (of the giant roll twists), combined with the collective members’ vivid dreams, which slowly grows into their unified joint nightmare.
