MOSCOW, June 13 — Before the launch of Russia’s military campaign in Ukraine, printer Sergei Besov was part of a burgeoning art scene based out of a converted factory in northern Moscow.

“Everyone Needs Peace,” reads one of his latest creations, hanging over the entrance to his Partisan Press poster workshop. He began printing the “Everyone Needs Peace” posters instead but the police still turned up at this shop in early March and detained two of his employees.“They were very nervous,” he says. The two women are now waiting to know whether they will face any charges.

Once the glue was applied, he stuck up the poster reading: “If there are dreams, there will be journeys.”
