The branding is based on the black patterns in all visuals.
It symbolizes the totalitarian regimes that occupied Ukrainian lands, particularly the city of Lviv, bringing fear, repression, murders, and more. The branding aims to evoke a sense of unease and hopelessness by limiting white space with a black pattern.
Now Ukraine is the reflection in your eyes
What does it mean when your friends take weapons to defend you and their loved ones? What does it mean to move step by step through all this hell with a desire to save and protect your freedom?
Boycott russian sports!
One donor has the potential to save several lives. Today, during the full Russian invasion of Ukraine, it’s a matter of life and death. So I decided to remind people again about the importance of being a donor.
How much do you know about the magical creatures of Ukrainian myth? Illustrations from ‘Whispers of the Forest: Tale About Mavkas’ showcase a collection of works depicting different types of mavkas. The unique drawing style and deep colors best demonstrate the majesty and mystery of these forest dwellers.
As a passionate cyclist, Romana often depicts moments of riding a bike. This work is an attempt to come back to toddler years when everything seemed so big, colorful, and fun. When each next kilometer opened something new, and the only wish was to stay outside for longer to impress everyone around with your speed.
On February 24, a full-scale war began in Ukraine, transforming this traumatic experience into posters to raise awareness and present the Ukrainian School of Design in a new way. The original poster size was 100×70 cm, and the author used an old dormitory scanner to create high-quality images. The poster series reflects an experiment using various materials, including clay, paint, and faces.
This illustration was made during the pandemic year as a skeptical question: What’s next? The illustrator invited apocalyptic characters to a video call and couldn’t expect this illustration to be not that ironic later.
I was taking pictures of displaced people from Ukraine who moved to Altenburg, Germany. By cutting the pictures and mixing the parts of the photos I am trying to recreate the world of people who feel divided into pieces. They are physically in Europe but their thoughts are in their homeland. With embroidery, which is also an important cultural phenomenon in Ukraine, I am trying to fix it and sew the pieces of a broken person together.
A few years ago my parents bought a house in a small village in Ukraine. It’s a beautiful place but somehow I always felt as if I didn’t belong there. Being used to city life and urban surroundings, I didn’t feel comfortable while staying “in the middle of nowhere”. In 2020 lockdown came and everything changed. I wanted to capture this time and explore how such an ordinary and simple life can be at the same time so unusual and ravishing. A year later I published a small edition of photobooks.
One of three illustrations from the series. Dedicated to women raped and murdered during the Russian war against Ukraine.
On 24 February, many people had only a few minutes to take something valuable and important and head into the unknown. Some had their suitcases in advance, but most were packing chaotically and in panic. What would you take first when you have a few minutes? What things should be with you to make you feel safe and to keep a sense of home. Maybe these are not things at all. Sometimes it’s a very chaotic and strange set, sometimes it’s just 1 important thing – these stories are our reality
Being born in a post-Soviet country, I was curious about the period of the USSR. In this project, I tried to imagine a world in which the merging of Soviet and Western cultures happens right after WWII as if the Cold War had never happened. American pop-art comic book culture, recreated by Roy Lichtenstein, merges with photographs taken from my family archive. Ordinary everyday scenes cease to be so when they merge with a riot of colors.

The Kyiv Posters project was conceived and implemented as part of the exposition at Kyiv design week 2023, organized by Design4Ukraine. We asked talented creatives to make posters with Kyiv’s inscription, in which the artists would reflect their idea of the city: impressions, memories, and reflections on the past, present, and future. This project was demonstrated at the event in Kyiv and Zurich.
Artwork was done during my evacuation in Moldova. I really missed home, where my whole family stayed. Every day I asked for a return.
The work was created two weeks before the full-scale invasion of Ukraine when the whole society was simultaneously torn between the new wave of COVID-19 and the possibility of a war in the country.
Mariupol is a city on the shores of the Azov Sea. The city was almost completely destroyed, the artwork was done during the bombing of the city by russian army. Hundreds of thousands of people died here.
