‘Rejuvenation’ explores the cultural heritage shared amongst Ukrainian women. The vibrant colours and patterns represent the spirited woman hidden behind the scarf and are inspired by traditional Ukrainian clothing. A commonly used item of clothing, the headscarf represents Ukrainian identity and femininity throughout Moskalets’ pieces. The headscarf is a symbolic connection to cultural traditions in a modern context. By hiding her face, she becomes a representation of women across Ukraine.
