"The picture was drawn immediately after the destruction of the dam of the reservoir"
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.
My pic for "When Everything Matters", the next great Pictoric international illustration exhibition June 22-25 | Kyiv, Book Arsenal.
Few words from curators: ,,The war showed us how quickly and easily lives can be destroyed. That is why people are increasingly valuing common things and daily rituals. In addition to everyday topics, the issues that the international community is concerned about have intensified. In our illustrations, we want to highlight not only the war and its impact on everyday life, but also its impact on culture, ecology, education, and human rights. We are convinced that art can help us make sense of reality, no matter how complicated it is, and help us think about the future.,,
P.S. I'm an eco pessimist , by the way. The picture was drawn immediately after the destruction of the dam of the reservoir, and we still do not know what happened to our relatives from those region , they still have not got in touch.
