No. 18 | Nolie Wilson | Portland, OR USA | To the People of Ukraine – For too long, too many of us hae forgotten how central interdependence + solidarity are for all of our survival, across the globe. I know that lesson well, as someone whose body does not produce valuable antibodies, either in response to vaccines – or to fight infections. The world is with you now, as we face together, the newest faceted face of war + crimes against humanity. Stand strong, you should not have had to be the first bulwark against nuclear war, but your bravery in doing so is the stuff of legends. Such sacrifices should never have to be asked or required, but when they are, all we can do is what we can. Stand strong, you deserve sovereignty + self determination. Together, i know we can make a better world. |

No. 27 | Rie Gutin | Albany, NY | This is not a traditional pysanky to say the least, but I hope it carries the same message & beauty as one – a sieve to clear right from wrong, to protect the fragility of the medium with armor & to give those who experience this pysanky a moment of wonder – things we all need from time to time. I make these eggs when I am stressed, in an effort to remind myself to steady my hand, to breathe, and to do the impossible. I hope you and or whomever owns this is able to feel all those things as well. Be well. |
No. 28 | Janet Furbeck | Schenectady, NY USA | Sending love, peace, strength and hope! |
No. 29 | Nancy Katsaba Kelly | Muncy, PA USA | I was born and raised in Kingston, PA in 1955. This was an area largely populated with immigrants from Eastern Europe. My parents were first generation Americans, as their parents were born in Ukraine near Lviv and Ternipol. I have been doing pysanky since I was in grade school. First ,starting with the drop-pull method (which my mom and sisters were experts at). Dont know how many pysanky I’ve made in my life, but I love writing them and giving them away. My Ukrainian heritage is very sacred to me, and my family! The egg I am sending you was done quite a few years ago, but I like it and hope you will too. God Bless Ukraine! |
