The work "Mariupol" is the first in the series about the war and the Ukrainian tragedy "War for Independence", it has already been completed and is being presented in various cities of the USA. The author spent about three months on its creation. In his opinion, this series is not intended so much for private collections, as it should go to museums and galleries of various cities around the world.
"Usually in hyperrealism, everything is depicted in extreme detail, but here I wanted to highlight the hands and the face, to show the pain, to show what our people go through, what our people went through. These are souls and the blood shed for Ukraine. Looking at those hands and eyes, people realized that it touched their inner strings. Because eyes and hands are the main things, and it's not just a look, it's tragedy and pain. And a piece of bread is an allusion to the famine that people experienced and are experiencing. Just look, The Holodomor, the heroes of the UPA, the Kruty - we always fought against the russia. But there was never such a full-scale war when rockets are fired at you and you don't know whether you will get home now or not. I connected and reconsidered a lot during my work." , - explains the artist.
