MOSCOW, 23 September (BelTA) – The Belarusian Telegraph Agency (BelTA) presented the exhibition “Destinies folded in triangle” as part of the Every Third requiem concert in the Kremlin Palace in Moscow.
The Destinies Folded in Triangle photo exhibition is based on the Internet project with the same name that BelTA and the Belarusian State Museum of History of the Great Patriotic War have launched. The project tells the story of the destinies of those, who fell during the war, and those, who survived the entire war, the story of famous and quite ordinary people by leveraging genuine personal letters of that period, postcards sent by soldiers to their families, and archive photos.
The presentation was interactive. Young men with soldier’s letters folded into triangles in their hands attracted concert goers with their look while Russian Post workers invited any takers to send letters to Belarus and Russia. Some wanted to pass on a good word to their friends and families. Some sent letters to their loved ones. People could also send letters to themselves.
It was not the first time Tatiana Vladimirovna had attended such a concert. “Every family has people, who died in this terrible war. Seven people died in our family. The grandfather and the grandmother had nine kids. Today we recall their heroic deeds and honor their memory,” she said.
After sending a letter to her daughter Yekaterina Primolennaya said that her key wish is to see a peaceful sky above the heads of children. “I wrote it inside the triangle envelope to my daughter. I wished her peaceful skies and happiness. We are already happy because we exist. We have to remember it and appreciate this invaluable memory,” she is convinced.
