Drawing inspiration from the harrowing yet hopeful crisis in Ukraine. This piece communicates resilience through its abstract representation of both the fragility and strength of the Ukrainian people. Reminiscent of the contrasting realms of sky and earth this tattered Ukrainian flag stands as a testament to the power of art in conveying complex narratives of freedom, struggle, and hope.
Unique in its creation, "Shattered" employs an unconventional mix of materials including cotton fibres, burnt burlap, and metal foils intricately layered together imbuing this piece with an energetic and contemporary aesthetic.
Ukraine, despite turmoil, remains the land of the free and the home of the brave.
