Julia Zass’s Weekly Drawing Project

Ukrainska 15 is an interactive long-read that tells a personal story about the first days of the war in Ukraine. The project documents everyday moments, memories, and emotional experiences that often remain outside official narratives.
The website combines storytelling, illustration, and scroll-based interaction to recreate the atmosphere of uncertainty, fear, and resilience people experienced during that time. The narrative moves from darkness to light, symbolizing the journey from the basement during shelling to life continuing above ground.
Through a minimal visual language the project focuses on memory, trauma, and the human side of war. Ukrainska 15 is both a personal archive and a digital story about how ordinary life changes in extraordinary circumstances.
