Black and white editorial illustration of a young girl holding a small birthday cake with four lit candles. Above her, a caption reads: “She’s celebrating her 4th birthday. The war has already taken four of her years.” A crack runs down the wall behind her.
Minimalist black and white drawing of a four-year-old girl standing alone, holding a birthday cake with four candles. She wears an oversized coat and carries a small stuffed toy on her back. A cracked wall appears behind her, symbolizing conflict.
Empty white frame with a thin black border. At the bottom, the dates read: “24.02.2022 — 24.02.2026.” A visual pause marking four years since the invasion of Ukraine.
She is four years old today.
The war in Ukraine is four years old too.
She has never known peace.
24.02.2022 — 24.02.2026
This is not history. This is now.
