Від креативу до волі через українське мистецтво у журналах 'Telegraf'

From creativity to freedom through Ukrainian art in 'Telegraf' art books

In times of globalization, when information and influences easily flow across borders, Ukrainian design becomes a special phenomenon. But what is Ukrainian design and who are Ukrainian designers? Do they have special features that are worth highlighting, or is it just part of a general global trend?

Ukrainian design is not just visual solutions or trends. This is a reflection of the cultural, historical and social features of the country, which are formed in a unique cultural context. It is a combination of traditional motifs with modern innovations that creates new formats for expressing ideas. Ukrainian designers not only follow global trends, but also actively shape them, adding national flavor and uniqueness to them.
