Victoria Sarangova - The turbulent history of Kalmyk people

# 45 - in conversations with multidisciplinary artists from the Republic of Kalmykia, Victoria Sarangova. Patrycja discovered the work of Victoria in a group show 'Өмә' in Kunstraum Kreuzberg Berlin. The show spoke about collective self-help practices of various ethnic groups living inside Russia today. During the podcast conversation Victoria shares her two long term projects; 'Motherland' - where she traces the history of her Kalmyk ancestors and 'Archaeology of Progress' - where she takes a critical look at the idea of progress as something equally positive for all members of our society.  ___ References: Artist website Artist Instagram  Exhibition 'Өмә' in Kunstraum Kreuzberg Memorial Society Lenin Square.
