The war robbed Ukrainian children of their childhood, forcing them to grow up quickly. However, it could not extinguish their love for Ukraine, belief in its eventual triumph, and hope for a better future. How do these children envision their country in the years to come? Through the "Colors of Victory" competition, part of the ArtArmor.Children initiative, the children expressed their visions.
The armor plates painted by Ukrainian children will be vital to the large international art project ArtArmor—art that saves lives. The children’s artwork will be featured alongside the works of renowned Ukrainian and foreign artists in an existing art exhibition. It will not only showcase the "children’s side" of the war and their unwavering faith in victory to the world but also serve as a poignant reminder of the Ukrainian children killed and injured by russians, as well as the tens of thousands of young boys and girls forcibly taken from Ukraine. These works will shed light on these tragic events and advocate for justice for the victims. The russian federation must be duly punished for these crimes.
