Since March 2022, Ukrainian communities have been stagnated by the atrocities of Russian military invading the country with deadly missiles, artillery and bullets.

Such merciless attacks have caused irreversible impacts on the Ukrainian livelihood, killing tens of thousands of adults, children and those who were enlisted to fight back, whilst injuring countless innocent, damaging enormous properties and devastating metal health of the population.

Between March and August 2022 and in October the same year, the 22-year-old independant photographer travelled to dozens of war-scarred cities, towns, villages as well as the frontline, to document how the Russian invasion has caused significant impacts on the livelihood of the Eastern European country, and how freedom loving Ukrainians withstood the devastation through unity, togetherness, resilience, love and supports of the international community.
