13-13, and this was already a conscious choice for me, and then i felt that i was really a part of this country because i was born. i was not born here, i was born in estonia, and then all these events, first from the 14th year, when the russian tournament began in ukraine, and i was very sick, so all i could do at that time was draw. well , i still draw . very such a good term that explains everything quilting we in fact i was in the period when i have me there were such wacky czech attitudes. i was born in estonia in a russian-speaking city, and where identity is very blurred and everyone is russian , they somehow position themselves as corruption, russians are independent of one thing or another, ukrainians, belarusians and even dreams there to be very

strange that is, because in ukraine it is a very, well, such a special topic, and people, let people be proud of it. and it was recently, well, in february, my friend from estonia, who is jewish by origin, wrote: i am russian and i will die in russian, that is, there is such a very strange identity. just all russian-speakers consider themselves russians in the same way. i believed and believed that ukraine is really some kind of unpleasant part of the empire. i knew the history very well. i understood it very well. well, it’s just so typical, so post-soviet, then what a boy, then a man, but i was very lucky that i still at the beginning of 2004, i began to meet people, ukraine was more important in life, and this prompted me to simply think about everything, start to understand, hmm , look at it much more

broadly . in ukrainian in everyday life or communicating with friends or from behind yes, my son when he was 7 years old and he is already separated from me and his mother. he came home and said that i want to speak ukrainian, and i, as a parent, just thought that oh no, nothing he remains as a child, you support him because i love him very much and i had such a gentle ukrainization, that is, through the child, through my son, i started it, it was very difficult because now i have a language after him, they consider ukraine to be called kharkiv , but i think that it is very important and master maybe there people can communicate in any language there uh in the family among friends but still without a language in our life now it is simply not possible so i even remember one of your posters the language does not seem to be in quarantine so the language and no, he is not going

to quarantine, the poster was quite interesting, we can even show it to our viewers, do you remember this picture? yes, i remember, and by the way, what did it refer to, if we were already talking about at that time, uh, we were just going to discuss the question of the law about the language, but there was a lot of resistance, and that's the question it was just that it was always on time then everything was an important issue and i simply decided to support in this way, we were in quarantine at that time, we were sitting at home in turkey. it is mostly spoken by the south of ukraine or the east of ukraine, they say that our jaws are not like that and that is why we cannot speak ukrainian. it is very difficult for you to answer them that you calmly switched to the ukrainian language and you are doing quite well well, most of my life i lived in

kharkiv. and it was a russian-speaking city, but now it is no longer like that, now there are such rapid and strong changes, but unfortunately, at a very high price, unfortunately, it is very painful. such losses and a very high price. what can i say about this? first of all, you should not be afraid of the reason. and if this is a conscious choice, then it becomes much easier for the person himself. you just have to believe , you need to know that everything will work out. plus, the majority of kharkiv residents and people from the east studied the ukrainian language at school, so or else a they have it in their assets, you just have to remember it, you have to start and don't be ashamed of it at all, don't be ashamed to make mistakes, you were in kharkov a long time ago, and the last time i was in kharkov was on february 24, that is, i

understand that it was there that you learned that a full-scale war had begun, yes as it was, i arrived on the 23rd, i really wanted to see my friends, and closer to some things, there was already an awareness that the war was coming, but no one knew who it would be, on which day we met my friend ulyana, with whom we constantly went out in the night kharkiv when i lived in kharkiv, we are together. i have such a nocturnal way of life, they are the same as when we walked at night in kharkiv, we used to walk somewhere until three o'clock in the morning, and kharkiv was just as beautiful and calm, the only thing was that there were a lot of police already with weapons, that is and there the presence of bula was very big, she returned home and at 5:00 in the morning everything started and it became clear that it was no longer fireworks, that it was a war. that is, you did not go to

sleep. the thought that it is soon she was already there, but it was still a shock , because for such things, you just can't get used to it and behave normally, it was a shock, of course, then i thought about what to do, because at that time my mother was in kyiv, and i had a thought how to get to her at the same time, i still planned to meet with friends, i bypassed everyone with big ones that day well, with a little pretext, i returned to kyiv on the 24th already at night, almost 25 really remained in kyiv. did i leave ? in kyiv until the beginning of march well, then i felt well i have such a complex mental illness and i

felt that they were starting, that is, they were getting worse , and my friends told me that i was going to send you away from here, and that's how i got to frankivsk. and people with whom i did joint projects, so the choice was there right away, he wanted to go there, my mother was there now, my mother interrupted me there. well, with all this , i am abroad now. abroad, yes, with my mother, with my brothers abroad. not for a very long time i was returning to kyiv. for me, kyiv is a city that is mostly associated with my son ugu. i still dared to come. i came to all the playgrounds where he and i used to walk since i was a child . well, he is now 13. i took pictures of everything. i

sent him everything. he also misses his instagram very much, he is just there, only old photos of kyiv are there, he misses them very much, he dreams of coming here how can you come back as soon as possible and i miss him very much, but at the same time, i understand that he could do without a parable , and this is important to me i can do more and be it's calmer, it's already some kind of city. if we talk about those in which you've been bees for a long time, kharkiv, kyiv , and now it's frankivska, what kind of home is ukraine for you? i understand that in any city of ukraine, it will feel like home, it's just that just one single home home is where close people are and close people can be found in churches from all over the country i would like to talk about your work the first posters as you said started to appear from the 14th year of the 14th because in the 13th year and in general,

did you count or not how many works have you already published painted in recent years, i paint almost every day, i think that there are definitely more than a thousand works, but it is not all about crying, but because of the fact that i, through this activity, i became more famous, and precisely because of a political poster . and now this work about love and some internal states is more famous very different works, but there are more than a thousand names, it's hard to say how many, because even some works are written to me by friends. do you remember that you drew such a plot there, i can remember you? no, but i am a facebook artist, so all this is saved on pages and time from time there are simply memories, you can see what you did then for ordinary ukrainians, uh, your

work is remembered. well, for example, one of those jobs is called peredova, where the face of a doctor and a military man are divided in half, so if i understand correctly, this job has become quite popular because it became an image on a postage stamp, it became an image on one of the coins issued by the national bank, what prompted this work, how did the idea to depict what you depicted, and it was the beginning of the quarantine, but in that most often it was the continuation of the war, my friend olena, she wrote to me listen now ah night workers they are not advanced either and it was such a phrase that touched me and i wanted to thank all our doctors on the one hand and on the other hand just to remind everyone that there was a war in our country at that time, now everyone

has realized everything. but at that time, a lot of people lived, as if in the back of their minds, about this somewhere, about this and their place in general, and i just decided to remind it, remind it again, and thank our military and our to the doctors and all those who save our country, another work that everyone saw. i haven't looked for a long time, i just don't read the boards that i see around the city, but i remembered the numbers 4-5 zero. it was a joint project of the return fund alive and of the armed forces of ukraine why 4-5 zero and 4:50 is such a military slang and it means everything is fine everything is calm and everything is fine to calm down and it was at that time that the idea arose precisely no i was approached

with a request about the fact that everyone feels the war, no one understands what will happen, and there are such panicked people mood and let's come up with something together so that on behalf of the army we can say that well, calm down, we are in control and as we see, everything is difficult and complicated, but the army is in control and our city will win and everything will be four or five zero for me. your project is interesting to talk about. it is a work that can be sued in ukraine, yes. yes, it depicts representatives of various professions, dancers , judges, musicians, representatives of working professions , teachers, etc., and on almost all the works it is written, i never thought that they would wear this uniform, but it is mine earth i know that some of your works in the entire series are quite personal and one of them is a

driller, you can tell me in more detail i have a facebook print, we have never seen each other , but i think we corresponded from time to time and he calls me, i call you, artem chirva and he started fighting again in the 14th year, he came to ilovaisk, he was at the airport, he was wounded, then he recovered for a long time. and now he is in february. he went to defend us, he was wounded under volnovakha was also cured and he left again and he was his he is concussed, he is currently being treated, but this person, well , who came, this whole war goes on, and he is a unique person in his sense, his taste is artistic

, he is so subtle, so a-ah , he constantly impresses, and he shares with the world from time to time new art innovations, namely such new products which i am interested in precisely and very ideological works that broadcast some kind of thought and where is he. i do n't even like him. well, this happens all the time, and when i already started this project, he wrote to me again. and who will be there? and to top it all off, i started a war , he wrote a driller. she is an incredibly unique person, and i thought to myself, there is another person who earns money in this series, where most of those who see work only have one inscription. let's protect the protests. dedicated to roman town hall he is my son, very close to my girlfriend

, he is a person i am very proud of and will be proud of all my life, because at a very young age he was able to do as much as a person can do in a long life, and he was an activist, he defended his native professor and he protected the country, unfortunately he died and it is a great loss because he is such a man of the future of the future of the country, but all the same, this future will happen because of romana, she will live. because i really believe that after the victory, just such people as they will inspire roman to simply make our country better, to overcome corruption , to present all these problems, all these incredible problems that still exist in the country, but they will already

be turned back. death or after, but i drew it on that day and found out that it was his birthday on this very day, this is the mystical story of three works that deserve attention and deserved attention , they are now quite common, many have taken them for their own use. i understand, you don’t monetize your work, they are all freely available, that’s right. and they are supposed to be freely available, but most of the country thinks so, and so do they. i am very good at appreciating my creativity, but there are a lot of people in ukraine who know how to do it, but they do it it’s just past me to appropriate your work well, there are several volunteer organizations to which i gave my

works for sale in order to be able to collect money, and the majority of 90 99 percent of what can be found in the country as a souvenir on various products is all piracy. well, i think that over time, we thought about preventing this. well, in principle, you could monetize it yourself - it is possible. well, i am saying it so that it will earn. therefore, it is possible to at least add to the example of the armed forces as an option. i really want to do it. and precisely in order to help you help but at the same time, the most important thing for me is to draw , this is my chatter, we are my contribution, my tabs. i only have enough energy for this, i think that in time i will deal with this, i will have assistants, for example, because drawing is all that i have in my life this is

all the main thing, especially in my life, namely conversion. i think that there will simply be a person or some moment with the help of which i will be able to simply apply it to her so that it is the administrative part, and for now i draw enough to live on and demand a lot. so that's all ok, one can say that these are mini-projects. as i understand it, it was the creation of defensive coats of arms for ukrainian cities, and where did this idea come from? it all started with a drawing for a small facebook, as well as a friend who also felt what was called the great war, he began to do in kyiv. vyshkiv and he asked me to make some kind of drawing for me so that this post would spread more, and i drew kyiv itself, it was the first

drawing, and in the comments i saw that people started asking me to draw it with such a city and i realized that it must be continued and the main thing what i wanted to say what pictures to convey first of all to the russians that if you come here poli ukraine will give you a very powerful repulse, that's why i created well, almost all the cities, but these are mostly these cities that went to the russian and belarusian cardboard here mostly there the ball is depicted less this is a counterattack, this is a powerful axis, or i think it is coming to us with a ball, they are marking the morning, yes, another one of your works can be called an art object - it is a cassette projectile that you plastered with your own illustrations from the lullaby series, do you know that there was an auction recently, at which there was

this art object has been sold. where did you get this projectile ? i was contacted again on facebook by the salonter group, and the group simply asked and said that we have a projectile. we also want to transform some objects for me and sell them in order to collect more money from donations for our military, when i saw it, it was a cluster projectile or a rocket, and when i saw it, i understood how terrible it was, and i wanted to turn it into something completely different, give it a different meaning and meaning. i took the lullaby as the warmest, most kind of my the project and i just wrapped it in such kindness and warmth and my dream is that all this russian bastards will just disappear here in our country. she just dissolved in general so that she was not there. well

, that was exactly the thought when i created it. we will simply digest them all. there won't be any, but it will be a quiet , peaceful night and a lullaby will be heard. do you remember your work? i'm asking this because we've already talked about the fact that some of your works you don't remember . one of the works that seems to me, well, just ah in the soul to the world day a-a mentally health on the background of the kremlin wall, instead of this main road, yes, instead of the spasa tower, a syringe with a needle and next to it, something is a star, what is it about, what did you put into this work? i remember the word продувдительным лечение treatment forced forced yes yes

well, in general, mental health day is a day so close to me because i have a mental disorder and because of it i could not react in the 14th year as a man to go to the army because all unfortunately, it is simply not compatible with war ah and therefore for me drawing is my contribution my contribution and this is my opportunity to somehow fight against russia in this case come on do you have the feeling that you are tired of drawing that you want to rest from that a it's not drawing that makes me tired , but i have a very large number of tasks and i just can't get nadiya out of it. that is, i physically feel very tired. at the same time, having such an illness, i understand that i have to somehow

preserve myself mentally again. that is, i i even once wrote a post about the fact that i was stopping such an active activity, but the next day new challenges appeared. i continued. well, i blame my conditions with medication. but thanks to this, sometimes it is even easier for me than many people because i am in such a system. i am more balanced, but equilibrium this is the main thing that i need to adhere to because otherwise there will be trouble besides medicine and what do you do besides drawing posters that helps you keep your balance faith faith is very strong and in all senses faith and faith in god and faith in people and faith in ukraine, but faith in ukraine, it happens. it is because of white people, it is the people around them who inspire me

very much. they inspire me every day . they also reflected on certain political events. and some years ago, one of my friends called me an artist of the patriotic part of ukraine. things, but he said that you are exactly like that, if you think about what happened then, the majority of even ukrainian artists, ah, what to paint the cossack mamai, they were not going anywhere now , a lot has changed now, artists who felt themselves ukrainians felt the need to talk about what it is happening, that is, the war has simply entered

every ukrainian home, all families have felt the war, and likewise all artists, they can no longer stay outside of it. i am very happy about it. because the more art there is, the more to bear the truth about ukraine is much better, well , the world needs to hear about us all the time, and so many people who used to be out of politics, but now have become involved in politics and have started to live by it, and it only makes me happy, we must speak out loud, and it is necessary, and our country, it is necessary, the world in your opinion , art cannot be outside of politics, maybe art cannot be outside of war, yes, yes, no, artistic language, how do you use it, artist , and not always.

she always drew very elaborate things in this way and continues to do them now, but at the same time, she was always in the kharkiv hospital, helping, i mean, no, even now, since the 14th year, and she helped the soldiers of the hospital, which is exactly what it is the mental rose to which they arose, they did art therapy with them, not necessarily that we should also paint war, i definitely want him to paint politics, but what he feels inside is very important, and now i think that all artists have not heard that they are ukrainians from part of ukraine good evening. we are from ukraine. vasyl zima's big broadcast. my name is taras zima. two hours of air time until 21:00. two hours of your time. we will talk about the most important things. two hours to learn about the war.
