# Visual Feels: Nikita Kadan’s Procedure Room
Artist Nikita Kadan's *Procedure Room* plate series shows the brutal
forms of torture performed by police in the artist's native country,
Ukraine. The horrific acts are depicted in the style of Soviet-era
medical dictionaries. As Kadan explains, "The didactic character of
these drawings addresses the collective responsibility of all those who
know and remain silent, bearing the guilt for what goes on 'in the
shadows.'" No jokes in this feel. It's not a *good* feel, but it *is* an
important one. You can find more information and photos of the
series [here][1]{: target="_blank"}.
