Svitlana Oslavska and her sister Anna Ilchenko discuss their Old Khata Project

Journalist Svitlana Oslavska and her photographer sister Anna Ilchenko started the Old Khata Project in 2020 intending to create a photobook about rural houses in Ukraine. The 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine slowed down the project, but the duo finally published their book in 2023. They were born in the city of Sieverodonetsk which is currently occupied by Russia. Ms. Oslavska and Ms. Ilchenko talk about why this project is so important for better understanding rural architecture and folk art in Ukraine as well as the people they interviewed in their travels from the regions of Zakarpattia to Luhansk and from Chernihiv to Kherson. Their book artfully reveals traces of traditional culture in modern everyday life. https://www.oldkhataproject.com/en/
