“I chatted with Banksy, not knowing who he was, as he created this artwork and when he spoke to my daughter she told him she liked it,” the 42-year-old told the outlet.
“She told Banksy she thought it was like a child saving his father from being attacked by a monster – a bit like Ukraine rescuing the world from something evil, like Russia.”
Banksy created the image — one of seven murals he reportedly painted in Ukraine — on the wall of a building destroyed by Russian missiles in Borodianka in the Kyiv region. The mysterious British artist is believed to have done the work in October, months after the area was bombarded. Patoku said the artwork clearly symbolizes the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the country’s fight against the invaders.
“The image is Ukraine beating Russia for sure but it is different perhaps from a child’s eyes,” she said. “Others see it as the young Ukraine battering the evil terrorism of older Russia.”
