In the first of our series of interviews with Ukrainian artists, we talk to actor and acting teacher Lilia Krivets.
Born in Lviv, Lilia graduated from the Kharkiv National University of Arts, before working and performing in Odessa before the war. She arrived in Poland at the beginning of March 2022 – in the second week of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, with her young son. Her husband stayed in the country to fight. She tells us how Ukrainian artists have responded to the ongoing war.
