Wind Between Walls, a sculpture inspired by the myth of Laocoön and his sons, is located in Odessa in front of the building of the Odessa Archaeological Museum. Laocoon threw a spear at the Trojan horse. Apollo sent two snakes that swam across the sea and swallowed Laocoon’s sons, Antiphantus and Fimbreus. He himself remained alive to mourn his fate forever.
A myth forms a syncretism, a combination of polar mythological and religious worlds where a concentration of meanings accumulates.

An attempt to evoke the tactile feeling of familiar things, one might find in their pockets, into the 3D imagery.

“Її” is the Ukrainian word for “her”. The project is a study of the boundary between the recognizable letters of the native language and the formation of a pattern.

I don’t want to be tolerant of russians. During their entire existence, they could not take a step towards democracy. And they took a step towards war.

“Dodomu” is a psychological support center for military personnel, assisting them in the rehabilitation process after participating in combat actions.

The main focus of the identity is a custom variable font that metaphorically represents the process of psychological rehabilitation: from sharp distorted letters to their regular forms; from stress and anxiety to calmness and tranquility.

Author’s poster for Oles Sanin’s film “Dovbush”

In the first months of the invasion, a gigantic 3x4m poster was displayed on the tallest tower in Freiburg, Germany, garnering attention and symbolizing European support.

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.
