An American artist from California, Trek Thunder Kelly, in collaborative work with Ukrainian native artists, is finding it helpful to repurpose remnants of Russian military aggression into art pieces of hope in Irpin. The town is outside Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.
People of Ukraine who lost their loved ones and belongings during the Russian military aggression are finding hope in flowers that survived the destruction.
The mayor noted that Irpin is one of the settlements in the Kyiv region that has suffered the most due to Russian shelling of the residential sector and civilian infrastructure. During the month of fierce fighting, 70% of the city was damaged.
According to the Kyiv School of Economics, the total damage caused to Irpin town in the Kyiv region from the war is estimated at almost $922 mln or over UAH 25.3 bln.
This can be seen from the analysis carried out by the KSE Institute team within the “Russia will pay” project. The damage to Irpinʼs infrastructure was carried out based on data collected in the framework of the RebuildUA project, initiated by Smart Farming and Vkursi Zemli. (VX Photo/ Vudi Xhymshiti)
