About this artwork
One side of the scales depicts the destructive reality of war, symbolizing the ruins and fires that threaten not just a single nation, but the very fabric of our shared existence. The other side represents the fragility… of our civilization—cities, nature, and the peaceful future we strive to build.
Through this work, I want to convey that peace is not just a political matter; it is a question of human survival and common sense. As a witness to the tragedy of war in Ukraine, I use my art to sound an alarm: the fire of conflict is not contained; it is a threat to all of humanity. This painting is a call to action, urging the world to choose peace and wisdom over destruction before it is too late.

My work explores the fragility of human feelings, family bonds, inner balance, and the search for safety in an uncertain world. Living through the war in Ukraine has deepened my interest in how people preserve hope, dignity, and compassion during times of crisis. Through symbolic images and visual narratives, I seek to invite reflection while retaining beauty and light.
My work has been presented by ArtSeen, Clover Gallery, Visual Art Journal, and Arty Rat Magazine. I received a Winner Diploma at the XX International Art Festival MALUY.UA in Kyiv and was selected for The Big Book of Painters 2026 by Arts to Hearts Project. My paintings were also selected for physical exhibitions in Barcelona and Budapest in 2026.
