- Why did you create this work?
It was a very important project for me because this book is about accepting the inevitable. "Our. Common." helps to go from denying the war to accepting reality and the actual future. It is brilliantly written by Tania Kasian — a writer, journalist, and public activist. The author particularly asked to depict the sea, because she was raised in Mariupol and this is a significant symbol for her. - How were your illustrations used?
