Original artwork description:

The concept of the painting "Blackout" captures the aftermath of a recent blackout in Ukraine, caused by rocket strikes targeting energy infrastructure. The paper portrays a scene of people desperately seeking places where generators are available to charge their phones and other devices. The queues are immense, with communication nonexistent in the city, leaving only the generators. This painting serves as a preservation of memories and events that are not fully comprehensible in everyday life, particularly in a country untouched by war.

Imagine waking up to find your city subjected to rocket shelling one evening, only to wake up the next morning to a complete absence of power and communication. It sounds like something out of an apocalypse. "Blackout" encapsulates the struggle, resilience, and shared experience of a community navigating through such chaotic times.
