A Thursday morning in February

Acrylic on canvas

80 × 60 cm


This image was created in 2022 after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

It was based on a poem I wrote in French, which was inspired by Jacques Prévert's poem ‘Chez la fleuriste,’ which deals with the simultaneity of an everyday scene and a tragic event.

Below is a translation into English too and finally into Ukrainian, which was kindly provided by Dr. Maksym Balatsenko.
