This is a self-initiated project that is a product of reflections on how year of war in Ukraine affected women' bodies and health. Girl community back at home and, here, abroad has been very honest and open about the range of experiences that a woman undergoes during the protracted period of armed violence. Over the year we have heard the multiple stories of sex crimes, phycological trauma, restricted access to medical help and hygiene products etc. There are many stories that remain unsaid or shared in secret all across the planet, rarely whispered in kitchens, bedrooms, telephone calls. This is an issue that catches up with you wherever you are and wherever you go - whether you have directly suffered from actions of occupying forces or have underwent hormonal flash after days of doomscrolling while observing events from abroad.

It is my hope that we would remain united and open, and grow enough to accept the experiences lived trough in past. Yet we would be able to let ourselves heal and rebuild the bridge with our sensitivity, love and respect to our bodies (that remained strong and functioning all the way trough) and ourselves as whole complete personalities. While it is still an impossible task to embrace every woman who was hurt, I hope we come trough this fire as a steal and come out gold when the war is over.
