    In November 2022, Banksy unveiled seven murals across war-torn Ukraine, from Kyiv to Borodyanka, Irpin and Hostomel. Created among the ruins left by Russia’s invasion, these site-specific works blend his trademark irony and innocence with the urgency of conflict. Each mural stands as both an artistic intervention and a symbol of resilience, drawing global attention to the human cost of war and the enduring spirit of the Ukrainian people.
