Andrew Chyzhov was born and raised in Sevastopol and after the occupation of Crimea, the “home question” became difficult and painful for him. These feelings are sublimated into a multi-year cycle of paintings, the leitmotif of which is always an image of houses. The artist dedicates a new series of paintings to all those Ukrainians who were forced to leave their homes and look for shelter in other places. The house becomes a symbol of peaceful life, gratitude for help and hope.
