What Is Ukraine?

DESCRIPTION The painting describes the wealth of Ukraine in many areas. The colors were not chosen by chance: red is love and freedom and black is sadness. They came about through our history, through the trespass of invaders… The central figure, a girl with long hair and a wreath of ribbons, symbolizes the beauty and wealth of Ukraine and its hard working people. The stitches represent rivers, mountains and seas. The flowers in her hair and the ears of grain represent the fertile and beautiful Ukrainian land. You can also see that the girl’s hair resembles a music record - a symbol of the melodic language and Ukrainian songs enriching our culture. The background of the painting - a pattern on an embroidered shirt - indicates the ethnicity and uniqueness of Ukrainian culture. Follow Mukhina on Instagram @vitalinka_art
