Students of the Kramatorsk College of Technology and Design, under the guidance of teachers Hanna Pohrebnyak and Valentina Radomska, presented their creative works at the exhibition "On the Line of Fire. Through the Flames to Freedom," initiated by the Donetsk Regional Art Museum.
These paintings are the voice of young people who see their land as wounded but unconquered. In their works, the students speak about their native land, which has gone through occupation, pain, and loss, and about their faith in its liberation and rebirth. This is the view of a generation that records the truth — about destroyed homes, broken destinies, and the crimes of the occupiers — so that they will never be forgotten and turned into "statistics." Through art, young people document the war as they feel it in their hearts: honestly and without embellishment. These works remind us what we are fighting for and why we must persevere.
KramFKTD lecturer Hanna Pohrebnyak was not only the supervisor of the students' works, but also the author of her own art objects at the exhibition. Her works are created from spent ammunition, RPG tubes, and shell casings — materials of war that have taken on new meaning through art and become powerful testimonies to reality.
Each such cultural project is a step toward preserving historical truth and affirming our freedom. Together, we will prevail. Together, we remember. Together, we will rebuild.
