Alevtyna Kakhidze's 2022 work "Untitled" uses simple black and white line drawings to address the complexities of the Russo-Ukrainian War. The work depicts a Ukrainian artist wondering if they will be alive, a Russian artist wondering if they will be jailed, and a Westerners Art Fund offering help to both. The stark contrast between the simple drawings and the weighty themes of the war creates a poignant commentary on the human cost of conflict.
