98% of our country’s population today would rather stay without electricity and water as long as they are free from Russia. -Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy

This piece presents as a type of alter andasks us to consider who or what we are in solidarity with. The yellow circle evokes the shape of the gold cupolas on Orthodox churches in Ukraine, or the gold halo on paintings of icons. The trees make us consider the natural world around us. The center circle may also evoke a moon or horizon, but it is between trees where a yellow bird rests, longing to ascend upwards.
