Lavka Tradytsii, in collaboration with League Design Agency and the Museum of Contemporary Art, introduced “Art on the Shelf.” This initiative illuminates Ukrainian culture, presenting artworks on shelves during a time when many art pieces are inaccessible.
The concept integrates renowned Ukrainian paintings into everyday product packaging—such as tea and honey. Key visual elements: vivid landscapes by artists like Kuindzhi and Novakivskyi. This narrates the stories of these celebrated artists.

My homeland, my beloved Ukraine is on fire, flooded with blood, wounded from
the bombs of the russian aggressor’s artillery and airstrikes. But we are still alive
and will continue to fight for our freedom. We are not afraid, because the truth is
on our side. We know that the Holy Mother of God is with us. She stands with us
in the midst of the houses destroyed by bombs, on the barricades, and on the
battlefield.
“They buried us, but they didn’t know we were seeds.” Dinos Christianopoulos
As soon as you feel the joy of life, the warm weather, the beauty around you, the war immediately reminds you of itself. With an anti-tank hedgehog in the flowerbed, the sound of an air alarm, notifications in your phone about another grief.
The series came to mind not immediately, but through many trials. I seem to give a feeling to these concrete blocks, which are now placed all over the country. In a way, they are
a metaphor for the nervous system of
a fairly resilient person: unbreakable,
but experiencing a range of negative,
sorrowful feelings.
This illustration was created for the exhibition When everything matters, organized by Pictoric. In this work, I wanted to show the deceptive carelessness of Ukrainian nature where, in fact, all living things are now in danger. It is also a metaphor for peace in captivity of war.
The artwork tells the story of one day in the life in Ukraine during the full-scale war. Hope, fatigue, contemplation of nature, and ways to cope with stress. However, some changes that have occurred in each individual and in the world as a whole are irreversible. The metaphor for this is an intelligence drone, which, like a leading bird, flies ahead of the flock of birds and guides it forward. The war has become so integrated into our lives that it could already become a routine.

Illustration depict the surreal reality of Russian war in Ukraine
It was done while thinking about how art, beauty, and aesthetics can be a place to escape from reality.
Illustration depict how surreal war feels in cities like Kyiv, where people have to find a way to balance “normal” aspects of their life and frightening war reality.

When one suffers from depression locked in the home, there are not many witnesses of the fight except for everyday objects surrounding. I decided to create an illustrated crockery set as a witness of my mental health struggles. I chose to work with ceramics as tempered yet fragile media, perfectly reflecting the subject.

The poster tells about the importance of language for Ukrainians. It shows that if you tell your child about your country from an early age, teach them about its traditions and culture, they will grow up to be a conscious citizen of their country.

The visual style of the 52nd Molodist Film Festival is based on the relentless struggle for truth and against fakes.
The light piercing through the chroma key (a tool for manipulating reality) can be seen as a symbolic victory over deception, illuminating the commitment to truth.
This creative solution aligns with the festival’s mission—to showcase emerging auteur films, celebrating raw talent over technical prowess.

SUNNY BUNNY, a standalone LGBTQ+ film festival in Ukraine, got its visual identity.
With these photographs, the Hexagon reduced the distance between society and the LGBTQ+ community, showing they are no different and deserve equal rights (this problem became more acute during the war).
With the logo, designers created a system of symbols that works with the festival’s central theme—visibility. And leave a lasting mark on the international queer film festival scene by its graphic quality.
The creative solution for the “Molodist” Film Festival aimed to capture the “spirit of the times” by avoiding obvious imagery related to war and crisis. It utilized an abstract sculpture set against a pattern—representing an absence of background in digital images.
The abstract figure represents cultural processes that win uncertainty—highlighting that culture would persist despite any circumstances.
