Back Home

A monoprint by Ukrainian artist Serhiy Savchenko depicting a solitary chair with a coat—or perhaps a uniform—draped over its back. The image becomes a symbol of homecoming after a long journey, hard labor, or war. The motif of return runs throughout Savchenko’s practice: through this chair, he gives form to hopes for friends now at the front—a quiet, prayer-like refrain for everything, and everyone, to come back to their rightful place.
