As part of the initiative, researchers are combining new recordings from territories under Ukrainian control with valuable archival audio materials from regions currently under Russian occupation, including the Askania steppe itself. The result of this work will be an unusual August exhibition that “cannot be seen, but can be heard.”</span></span></span></span></span></span>
