Modern wars are more than just soldiers shooting each other with bullets and missiles. In the current war Russia is waging on Ukraine, there’s already a clear winner. At least the free world has already picked a side — the freedom-loving country of Ukraine, who’s been mercilessly bullied by its angry neighbor.
And as the invasion continues, more and more musicians, writers, and artists are tapping into that creative vein to make the world a better place by calling for peace or just mocking the orcish soldiers and their half-witted leader.
Being a street artist takes courage as you’re showing off not only your creative side but also your painting skills. These people draw and spraypaint poignant anti-war propaganda on walls and other city structures for everyone to see. Some of the artists stick to the home turf and paint walls of Ukrainian cities, while others are letting everyone know that they #standwithukraine by painting murals all over the globe.
These masterpieces speak for themselves: we need to take a stand and remind the free people of the world that Putin’s war on Ukraine is more than just a tussle in Eastern Europe. Today it’s Ukraine, tomorrow — Warsaw, Paris, Lisabon, etc. There’s no end to the sickening hunger of Russian imperialism.
Let’s look at some of the most amazing murals supporting Ukraine and condemning Russia.
