Ukraine House in Denmark in collaboration with the Dutch-Ukrainian Cultural Center "Kastanje" and Ukrainian artist and photographer Kostyantyn Rudeshko, is proud to present The House of Light: A Tribute to Polina Raiko.

The installation honors the legacy of the self-taught Ukrainian artist Polina Raiko and marks Ukraine's debut at the Copenhagen Light Festival 2025.Polina Raiko's house in Oleshky, Ukraine, stood as a vibrant testament to her unique vision. Starting to paint at the age of 69, Raiko transformed her home into a stunning gallery of naïve art, drawing from local folklore, religion, and her personal experiences. Tragically, her home was severely damaged on June 6, 2023, in a flood caused by the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam by Russian occupiers.From January 31 to February 28, visitors can experience a virtual revival of Raiko's vibrant world projected onto Ukraine House's iconic harbor-front facade and explore a comprehensive indoor exhibition featuring photographs, documentaries, and an immersive VR experience.The opening: January 31 at 19:00
