Item Summary

Description provided by artist:

"War is a shock that facilitates self-discovery through suffering. By revealing hidden weaknesses, hidden strengths arise. Therefore this series focuses not only on the pain of the present, but also hope for the future – and documents that process. Within this framework, I seek to record my reflections as an artist who was forced to leave Ukraine, but remains inextricably linked with the ordeal of my country through a shared artery of pain."

* Triptych “Altar of Hope” combines paintings based on actual news photographs depicting the shelling of Ukrainian cities.

Acrylic on canvas. Sizes: 61x46 cm; 76x51 cm; 61x46 cm
