"Surrogate mom" / Poster

Poster design for online perfomance "Surrogate mom".
"СурМАМА" (rus.)
"In Europe, this practice is almost universally prohibited or has strict restrictions. India, Nepal and Thailand, which have traditionally provided these services, are now closed to requests for surrogates. This was due to reports of the exploitation of women. Today, foreigners prefer to travel to Ukraine. In Belarus, surrogacy is officially allowed, and it is much cheaper than in the United States, or even in Kenya.

The research of the topic and the writing of the text are done collectively. The method of the Theater of the Oppressed (one of its forms - forum-theater), created by the Brazilian director Augusto Boal, was used in the work. The theme of forum performances is always related to a social problem and is somehow related to oppression. The purpose of the forum is to overcome this oppression, that is, a collective or individual search for a way out of this situation. The audience, unlike the usual theater, is active, they are invited to enter the stage space, replace the actor and change the situation."
