ArtArmor – art that saves lives.

Creative idea

In a world where Ukraine fades from headlines, ArtArmor emerges as a poignant reminder of its ongoing struggle. This unexpected project reimagines used armored plates from bulletproof vests as canvases for powerful artworks, preserving the stories of lives saved and amplifying the voices of Ukrainian people. Through collaboration with local and international artists, ArtArmor brings its message of resilience and solidarity to audiences across the world. The impact of ArtArmor is undeniable: it has sparked widespread engagement of political action and meaningful conversations about the ongoing war. The project serves as an ambassador to Ukraine, reminding us all of art's transformative power to unite communities in the pursuit of peace.
