Roots of Resistance
Digital museum exhibit
Roots of Resistance: The Tuchyn Story is a hybrid exhibition about a Jewish uprising in the Tuchyn Ghetto against Nazi occupiers in Tuchyn, Ukraine, during World War II. When nearby refugees arrived in Tuchyn, they warned Jews of the dangers coming towards the town. By arming themselves, the Jewish people of the town executed a plan to resist by setting their homes and synagogue on fire and escaping into the nearby forest. Out of 2,600 who escaped from the Tuchyn Ghetto, only 69 survived.
In 2019, the curatorial team reached out to me seeking a developer partner to build the interactive digital element of the exhibit. I led multiple design and ideation workshops, and I worked closely with the curators to design and develop a custom application for the exhibit.
