PROJECT DETAILS:

On 25th February, Ukraine’s president Zelenskyy has honoured 13 soldiers defending Snake Island after reportedly swearing at a Russian warship that ordered them to surrender.

Against first reports, the soldiers, thankfully, may still be alive. Their quote "Russian warship, go fuck yourself", captured on audio clips, stays the signature quote that captures the sentiment of the Ukrainian people defending themselves against Putin’s invasion.

Since the beginning of Putin’s unlawful war, over 150,000 Ukrainians – mostly women and children – seek refuge in Poland and other neighbouring countries.

Please support the cause and pre-order our poster at People of Print. Limited to 100 A2 silk-screened poster, printed on 300gsm black paper.

All of the revenue raised from this project will go directly towards the UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency and we hope that our efforts, along with your support, help the Ukrainian Crisis.

Note: this is a pre-order, so please allow time for hand screen printing and delivery.
