Liubov Dyvak is a Ukrainian journalist and researcher based between Berlin and Kyiv. Dyvak’s early research examined the tension between modern-day Ukraine’s pursuit of its own cultural identity with the inherited trauma of its post-soviet existence. She has completed research fellowships and scholarships at several major institutions, including Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie. More recently though, Dyvak’s work has been directed towards the cultural and psychological impact of Russia’s fullscale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. She co-produced the feature-length documentary, The Longer You Bleed, shot between Berlin and Kyiv-region, highlighting the evolving ways society is engaging with images of war, and she is currently working as an editor for interviews with frontline soldiers.
