The series of video works "Fruits of Life" is dedicated to the memory of Ukrainian artists of the last century, who were true rebels, revolutionaries; they forever became the heroes of the Ukrainian soul.
They turned the totalitarian regime upside down, rebelled against the death of the individual, against injustice. Many of them were punished for their nature, their free spirit; killed by the Soviet authorities, destitute, but not forgotten.
They gave life to a new reality, expanded human consciousness, and a new generation of Ukrainians, free on their land, who grows and flourishes on the fruits of their creativity.
