As a Russian artist, I want to speak clearly: I condemn the aggression against Ukraine. This war should never have happened. It brings only pain and death — to Ukrainians, to Russians, to everyone whose lives it touches.
Many people in my country have been manipulated by state propaganda for years, taught to see enemies where there are none. Fear has replaced empathy, and truth has been buried under slogans. Through my work, I want to speak against this — to remind us that no idea, no flag, no government can justify violence or the loss of human life.
