In the project #FramedinBelarus, the artist Rufina Bazlova and curator Sofia Tocar teach resistant embroidery. The social art project depicts political prisoners in Belarus with embroideries inspired by the Vyshyvanka tradition of red cross embroidery on white backgrounds. The project is located at MINSK through Rufina Bazlova's artistic intervention Such a Minsk, and its precise craftsmanship shows similarities to the layout of Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt's typewritings.
Admission to the exhibition is free with the ticket from 15:30. The workshop takes place in English and Russian. No previous knowledge necessary.
The workshop title comes from a typewriting by Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt.
