Forgotten stories of submerged Bulgarian villages due to the intensive construction of dams in the period 1950-1986 will be shown in the exhibition "Lost Underwater", which opens today in the capital's cultural space Bobbina. In it, Ralitsa Kamenova and Stella Bizeva will present a multi-genre installation consisting of collages on textiles, a specially composed sound picture, as well as video art.
"It is no secret that some of the dams were built on villages that were forcibly displaced. Such a historical event might seem insignificant in scale, but it is part of the shared narrative of generations of people and left a deep imprint on their lives that have been irrevocably changed," the authors say about the exhibition.
During their work, they relied on archival footage, documents, photography and sound to authentically recreate the experiences of the residents of over 40 villages across the country.
