The Chuvash (Russian: чуваши) are a Turkic people, related to the Oghurs, who are native to a region extending from Central-Western Russia to Siberia.  Many live in Chuvashia and ethnic communities throughout Russia, and continue to speak Chuvashi language, which diverged from other Turkic languages over a thousand years ago.  They have been subjected to much outside influence, not only from Russian and Turkic peoples, but also from neighbouring Finnic tribes, with whom they have been wrongly identified for centuries.  Today, many Chuvash practice a syncretised form of Orthodox Christianity and Shamanism. Traditional clothing of Chuvash women is complex and varies greatly between regions. A distinctive feature is the rich ornamentation of headdresses and jewellery with decorative silver coins. The most unusual feature is called shulkeme - the breast adornment worn by a young married woman. The full set of jewellery a Chuvash woman would wear during the ceremony could weigh up to 16kg. Traditionally, the size and weight of the jewellery displayed the wealth of the bride's family and was a fundamental part of her dowry. The traditional headdress of a married Chuvashi woman is called khushpu. It is worn over the surpan, a strip of white fabric with embroidery at the ends. The khushpu pictured here is one of the oldest and rarest in existence, dating back to the 18th Century.  📸 Alexander Kimushin

No language is useless.

Berate and scorn any moron who says otherwise. Harshly!

*yes this is about the Irish language, which many loyalists, unionist politicians and useful IDIOTS in the Republic of Ireland (all because they’re bitter about having to learn it at school, in their 40s! I say move on! For fuck’s sake!) want to see DESTROYED!*

*among MANY other languages*

I'm in love with these beautiful wooden statues of the gods, spirts & other folkloric figures in Chuvash mythology. There are over 100 of them in the Suvar Bulgar Ethno Park not too far from Cheboksary in the Chuvash Republic.

Платье-саппун из красной шерсти и ажурный свитер из мохера, украшенный монетами.

"Чӗрӗ-Чӗре / Heart Living" (2022)

Инсталляция группы HERACHA "Чӗрӗ-чӗре/ Heart Living" предполагает взаимодействие со зрителем -  при накоплении электричества подключенные к монетам зуммеры начинают издавать звуки, позволяя зрителю войти в состояние прохождения электричества через свой организм и ощутить тонкие изменения в звучании.

Идея работы - прочувствовать связь с культурой через звук и электричество. Концептуально инсталляция связана с темой самоидентефикации, а также является размышления по поводу возможностей национального искусства.
