These broken, dirty and partially limbless dolls are from a deserted school in northern Ukraine. While the school had long been deserted when I got there due to the radioactive fallout from the meltdown in Reactor IV at the Chernobyl Nuclear facility, to me they now also symbolize the plight of the children in Ukraine. It’s hard to discern how much their lives will be mentally, physically, and spiritually impacted, not to mention traumatized, from Putin’s brutal invasion.
