Description of the Artwork “Air raid alarm sirens”
This painting was created during the first week of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. The heroic narrative, inspired by Indian mythology, vividly portrays the real-life events unfolding in Ukraine. The city of Kharkiv, where this painting originated, faced intense shelling and repelled several assault attempts during this tragic period. The artist, deeply moved by these events, channeled the emotional impact into creating this expressive and poignant piece.

Victoria Trunova, Ukraine
Victoria was born in 1958 in Kharkiv, Ukraine, which was part of the USSR at the time. She was a representative of the 'Ukrainian New Wave' art movement, which emerged as a response by Soviet youth to years of artistic repression in the Soviet Union and as a consequence of the liberalization of Soviet society. The artist drew inspiration from classical avant-garde, Western modernism, and post-modernism. Victoria Trunova passed away at her home/studio in Kharkiv, Ukraine, on July 7, 2023.
