BBC NewsWhat can you do with two million tulips left over from International Women’s Day when the mall housing your warehouse in Kyiv is hit by a Russian missile?
The task was set for designer Kateryna Mamonova, her twin sister Olena, and their friends across Kyiv. By the next day volunteers of all ages were laying down tulips of all colours to form a three-pronged spear, Ukraine’s symbol, in cobbled St Sophia’s square. “The trident is an ancient symbol of the unity of Ukraine and we want to send a message of the beauty of peace to the world,” Kateryna explains while young and old go back and forth, arms full of flowers.It also sends a message that, for all the air raid sirens and booms of Russian artillery fire on the outskirts of Kyiv, they’re here to stay.
“My grand grand grand fathers and mothers were born and died in this city. For me, Kyiv is my heart,” declares restauranteur Tetyana Mytrofanova, one of the organisers in sparkling red boots and a yellow jumpsuit and blue beret, the colours of Ukraine. “I do a lot of little things,” she says, listing how she’s helping to feed people and help those displaced from cities like Mariupol and Kharkiv where fighting rages. “Everyone plays their part.”“Absolutely, we can stop Russian tanks with our culture,” he insists. “With music I found a channel to provide emotional support to our people, and unite people around the world."He breaks into a rousing rendition of Ukraine’s national anthem, his deep voice booming across a tulip-covered square.
