SUMMARY:Textile Memories | Varvara Keidan Shavrova at Documentation Centre\
 , Berlin
DESCRIPTION:This gallery exhibition centers on the textile installation by 
 artist Varvara Keidan Shavrova\, born in Soviet Russia and now living in E
 ngland and Ireland. The installation features eight screen-printed felt bl
 ankets\, each depicting images from her family photo album. This social an
 d performative artwork invites interaction: visitors are encouraged to tou
 ch the blankets or drape them over their shoulders.\n\nJuxtaposed with the
  artwork are historical objects from the Documentation Centre's collection
 \, including a tablecloth from East Prussia\, a bedspread from Bohemia\, a
 nd a small table cover from Brandenburg.\n\nTextiles such as blankets\, ta
 blecloths\, handkerchiefs\, traditional costumes\, coats\, cloaks\, scarve
 s\, and throws are poignant witnesses to hardship and suffering. They serv
 e as relics of loss and deprivation\, embodying the deeply human desire to
  connect with warmth\, familiarity\, and family. These objects offer a sen
 se of solace against the painful experiences of displacement\, loneliness\
 , and uprootedness.\n\nVarvara Keidan Shavrova’s work speaks to these sh
 ared experiences of millions of refugees\, displaced persons\, and emigran
 ts\, resonating with their enduring stories.\n\nExhibition Dates: February
  2- November 16\, 2025
