Artist
Lesia is an artist from Odesa, Ukraine. She started drawing 8 years ago after a bad leg injury put her previous career on hold. After leaving Odesa in April 2022, Lesia continues to paint and visualize Ukraine and the invasion. “Drawing for me is a hobby, a job, and a way to reflect. Every time another terrible event happens, I think to myself — again? How can this get any worse? And then I sit down and draw and cry... This is my way of surviving this grief because no one can be aloof. I believe in our Armed Forces, and our victory!”

February 24 started the same way for everyone. Today is a year since we woke up at night from explosions, with phone calls, gathering things, not understanding what to do next, fear, and panic. Today it has been a year since that time. What is realized for sure is no longer scary, as it was then. And there is only one way out - victory

Many people are now separated from their loved ones because of war. Often, the only way to express love is through the phone. We help our loved ones online, and make donations through our phones. All is a manifestation of love - for our defenders, volunteers, doctors, victims and simply for all of Ukraine

I don’t typically celebrate Valentine's Day, but I think that with the beginning of the war, many people realized how valuable time is, when spent with your loved ones, when the next day is – unknown.

Blackouts. In the absence of street lighting, reflective tape can save your life and the lives of your loved ones. It is thanks to it that drivers will be able to identify you in the pitch black and avoid a life-threatening situation.

The work is dedicated to Blackout. In the cities of Ukraine there is a schedule of power outages due to the bombing of energy infrastructure. People are left without work, living in cold and unheated rooms, generators are running everywhere, the daily stream of horrific news, it would seem oppressive demotivating atmosphere of war reality could completely plunge people into a state of constant anxiety and decompose society from within. But Ukrainians do not forget about culture and do not lose interest in self-development, even in such circumstances. Visiting museums with a flashlight, walking through dark streets and unlit parks, and wearing reflective clothing have become an integral part of our lifestyle. Our reality shows that even war and the horrors it brings with it will not take away our passion and interest in life.

Day and night, there is a constant struggle for our freedom, our future. Know your roots so you can soar, but be yourself. Know your identity, know who you are, what your language is. What was 120 years ago, what transpired since 2014, and what is now. Initially, the illustration was only about language, but it is about everything, everything is so connected. If you lose the memory of who you are, the traditions of your country - you will lose your culture. I am very pleased that now we hear a lot about our history, self-awareness, culture and traditions.

In 1919, during the war, when we were attacked from all sides, Ukrainians united into one nation. This union became important for the people, because it laid the foundations of our identity, our “UNITY”. Then our people from different corners realized that they have everything in common: history, language, identity. In 2022, they wanted to destroy our identity, but we were united again by our UNITY! From Kharkiv to Lviv, from Odesa to Kyiv - the people united for the sake of the integrity of the free state, for the sake of restoring unity with the occupied territories. Unity is us! Unity is the goal of Victory!

Every day shelling and casualties, every day people die somewhere, every day someone loses their home, their heart. There were happy people in every house. They built a life. They dreamed and created plans. They loved, gave birth to children, rejoiced in their grandchildren. Whether it was in Dnipro, or in Mariupol, or in Bakhmut, or in Borodyanka, or in Kherson, or anywhere else, there were happy lives! And then the occupier crushed this happy life in one day and left behind ruins.

Dozens of Ukrainian civilians are trapped under the rubble after the #russian attack on my hometown #Dnipro. The missile hit a big residential block on a holiday, when people were mostly at home. It's reported that residents sent texts from their destroyed flats to help locate them, and every now and then the rescuers stop working to identify the voices from under the ruins
