Silent Strings

Natalia, once a dedicated violinist, plays her instrument amid the haunting remnants of a school devastated by a Russian airstrike. Her music, now a poignant echo of a life forever altered by war, fills the broken space with both sorrow and defiance. Captured on Monday, August 12, 2024, in Kharkiv, Ukraine, Natalia’s story is one of profound transformation—from the harmony of her violin to the urgency of saving lives on the frontline.
