This illustration was created in the very first days of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, for DOXA’s Anti-War Handbook — a guide that helps people speak to relatives, friends, and coworkers about the war.

The article provides 17 responses to the most common arguments used to justify violence. I illustrated one of the emotional and often painful dialogues in my expressive sketchy style — fast, raw, and human.

The goal of this artwork was to support those who face difficult conversations and to help bring clarity and compassion to anti-war dialogue.
