Bag om Don't Close Your Eyes

Don't Close Your Eyes, a collection of Hanna Melnyczuk's drawings created during Russia's war on Ukraine, attempt to process what is happening to the country her parents left in 1945. Influenced by her work on children's books, these drawings convey events through colored pencil and watercolor. Melnyczuk draws as a way to understand the unfathomable acts of war, and images that line her mind unfurl onto paper. When the people plead "close the sky!" her work closes the sky with needle and thread. The destruction of buildings and bricks begin to reveal the bodies beneath. These drawings bring to the fore the death and horror of war through the filter of time and distance, expressing the emotions of one viewing the war from afar, depicting what can only be seen in the mind's eye. Proceeds of this book will be donated to the war and recovery efforts.
