Ukraine@MIT: Screening/Q&A "Sand Castles

Ukraine@MIT presents a screening of the documentary Sand Castles with Q&A by experimental engineer and producer Mitya Zinoviev.

Sand Castles is a documentary about Ukrainian artists and engineers who create large-scale physical art objects and present it at Burning Man – a week-long world famous event in a Black Rock Desert, Nevada. The documentary details the construction of sculptural projects created under Zinoviev’s Kyiv-based “Wonder Workshop” that include projects such as Hedgehog Temple, Phoenix, I’m Fine, Blue Bull, Merman.

This event will be interesting for those who are curious about art-making, Ukrainian art and engineers during the full scale russian invasion, about the Burning Man and cultural diplomacy. Young and experienced engineers will find the inspiration to apply their skills in meaningful ways.

This movie screening has the original Ukrainian sound with English subtitles. After the screening, there will be a Q&A and reception.

Please RSVP so we have an approximate head count.
