As Russian forces continue attacking Ukraine, Ukrainian artists have been visualizing the resilience of their nation and how their lives have been turned upside down by war.

, a Ukrainian-born photographer and artist, emulates the"indestructible" spirit of Ukraine in a portrait of a woman, she tells NPR. The woman's body appears cracked, but the Ukrainian flag shines beneath the gaps.

"I wanted to show that no matter how much destruction Ukrainian land will have to endure, bombs and bullets can never destroy the will, strength and spirit of the Ukrainian people." They will"stay strong till the end," she said,"and never surrender."'s portfolio is filled with colorful monsters, ice cream, dogs and even a yeti. But an illustration posted on Instagram after weeks of war stands in stark contrast.

The war divided the lives of all Ukrainians into a before and after, Kamelkova writes on Instagram, but some will never live to see the after. "We fall asleep to the sounds of sirens and wake up from explosions, count the surviving relatives and friends and hope that TOMORROW will still come," Kamelkova told NPR in a statement.Kovalyk, an illustrator and character designer, writes of witnessing mothers and their newborns seeking shelter in hospital basements and subway stations.

In one evocative piece, Kovalyk shows a woman standing on a train with tears rolling down her cheek beneath furrowed, helpless eyebrows. The mother cradles a baby, draped only in a Ukrainian flag. She stares directly forward, almost as to make eye contact with the viewer.
