"The norm is not a constant. An individual norm is determined by subjective expectations and experience. The social norm is determined by the dominance of a set of individual norms. For most Ukrainians, it has become the norm to sleep during rocket attacks, but not yet, and unfortunately, to accept the diversity of personalities. Language is one of the main features of a society. And the signs of a civilized society are the existence of human rights and the existence of wide opportunities for its comprehensive development. For every human being."

Atelier Normalno is an independent creative studio that brings together artists with and without Down syndrome. The studio was founded in the autumn 2018 by Stanislav Turina, Katya Libkind, Valeria Tarasenko, and Olena Vasyk. The studio aims to share their life and creative experience and their special perception of the environment with the whole world to increase respect for diversity.

The works in the book were created at Atelier Normalno by Anastasia Ziatkova, Olena Buchkaryk, Nazar Yurchilo, and Danya Serhiyenko.
