The exhibition was created by the Skeiron team in cooperation with the Main Directorate of the National Police in Kharkiv Region and the “Memorial Platform”.
The project presents an array of digital data resulting from the documentation of the war’s consequences: 3D models of destroyed objects, places of illegal detention, and mass burial sites of civilians in the Izium district. Their recording assists in global processes of establishing justice and accountability.
The Howard G. Buffett Foundation serves as the strategic partner of the initiative, supporting key areas of work to establish the circumstances of russian war crimes and restore justice, including DNA identification projects and expert data processing.
“Through Darkness. The Light of Memory” is about documenting facts and creating a space for reflection, where 3D scanning, photogrammetry, and sound technologies help convey the realities of war with respect for the experiences of those affected. The project makes visible not only the wound but also the strength—the society’s ability to preserve memory, uphold values, and work toward recovery.
