Project reimagines male heroes from ancient Scythian burial mounds, questioning how they might be depicted in archaeological finds. Fragmented, low-quality images uncover their vulnerability and individuality—glimpses of lives beyond war and conquest. It challenges faceless memorialization, revealing what is lost when history reduces a person to a symbol.
The series title, "See Figure 7 for Reference," is inspired by a common phrase in books that guides readers to visual aids for better understanding. This reflects the reality that most people in the Ukrainian regions where these artifacts were discovered had only ever seen them in books and textbooks.
