Jeremiah is not mourning over the past but out of hope for the future. Every tear shed contributes to the reconstruction of the next Temple -Rav Simcha Zissel of Kelm Memory is dynamic and its movement is largely ungraspable, it is situated between a specificity of the present and complexity of the past.


The only constant of the horrorific events of Babi Yar is the intent to «cover up» and the resultant constant shifts in the cultural, social and racial topographical landscape. We propose a space that brings the opportunity to the visitor to be an active participant and to identify with the memorial; to be involed in order to negotiate responsiveness in a memorial/museum merged into one typology as an agent of change.


A contested space in which the relationship between the extermination of Jews in Kyiv during World War II and the emerging identity of Jews is confronted through dialogue. Through this dialogue the museum/memorial will materialize memory of that horrific event, Now. Now, being always present and shifting as generations live and die validate this discourse-space always vital and essential to humanity.
