"My friend is evacuating his grandmother from a flooded house in Nova Kahоvka"
Yuliya Tveritina – Academician of the National Academy of Arts of Ukraine, master of linear painting, graphic artist, and illustrator. Julia is from Kyiv. For many years she has been living and working in Suzhou (China). From the first days of the war the artist began to keep an art diary of the war.
New page from the diary - Kherson, June 6, 2023. Dam explosion. My friend Ruslan is evacuating his grandmother Maria Vasilievna from a flooded house in Nova Kahovka, where I once spent two wonderful summers in a past life. Grandma does not walk well on her own, but she is lucky that the bed was high enough. The house was old and collapsed in less than a day. I read in the news that all of the animals of the local zoo drowned , except the swans, and also, I guess , all the dogs sitting on the chain, and I also know that most of the animals of the nursery known to me remained in their cages forever, and probably we are dealing with a brewing environmental disaster, but who thinks about it when dams take off into the air, in the name of someone’s ideals, peace and prosperity, right?
