Item Summary

The description provided by the artist: "Зимою, весною 2022 я бачив багато відео і фото українських полів, що були щедро усіяні трупами російських окупантів (росіяни не забирали тіла своїх загиблих). Вони лежали довго, мороз беріг їх. Аж ось стало тепло і над полями України піднялися цілі хмари мух."

"During the winter and spring of 2022, I saw many videos and photos of Ukrainian fields generously scattered with the bodies of Russian occupiers (the Russians did not retrieve the bodies of their fallen soldiers). The bodies lay there for a long time, preserved by the freezing temperatures. When the weather finally warmed up, entire swarms of flies rose above the fields of Ukraine."

Paper, charcoal.
