It is time to present our unique and original culture of Ukraine, and in these difficult times for our country to create a revival and popularization of our culture. The funds that will be received from the sale of paintings will go to help people affected by the hostilities, as well as to develop Ukrainian culture. Because it is culture that is the face of a country in the world, it is something that does not die even for centuries, says the project curator Zlata Shishman.
