Read more about the artwork
This work is about the war in Ukraine. About the strength and courage of Ukrainians. The metal forms of fragments of shells and rockets resemble predatory beasts, and one of them looks like a shark caught in the metal bars of Soviet windows. The sun rises on the windows, which does not warm. It can only kill.
Samples of racist weapons are laid out on the podium. These are real artifacts collected during World War II expeditions by the team of the National Museum of the History of Ukraine in the Second World War.
Ukrainians have a concentration of will to resist this influx.
