Women and War

In most cases war has an image of a man with gun and woman as a victim. But conflict in Ukraine, shows various images referring to female archetypes. Ukrainian women are exceptional when it comes to resisting the problems posed by the full-scale war that is taking place in their country. They are everyday heroes responsible for things, which are not visible for the first sight.
