A Letter. 2022.
61х53 cm.
Armed plate, enamel, acrylic, author’s technique.
“I really dream of playing with friends under a peaceful sky. Come back home healthy and victorious!”
Each armor plate lives its life, protecting the life of a fighter.
It preserves the history of the past and protects the history of the future. Children, our future, the future of Ukraine are an object of protection and a support at the same time, a source of inspiration for stability and strength. Their hearts beat in time with the hearts of fighters and the heart of Ukraine.
If only combat were as illusory as a child’s imagination in the pictures in the school album.
A letter to soldiers at the front, written by a child’s hand, is a talisman that supports the chain of priceless communication between “warrior” and “home”. Let’s help keep this connection together!
