SVARGA designers, in collaboration with the Boriviter Military School, recreated fragments of the “Tree of Life” tapestry on T-shirts, to draw attention to the need to preserve Ukraine’s cultural heritage
Today, this unique work is under threat, as it is housed in Sumy — a city that, due to its proximity to the front lines, faces the risk of Russian shelling every day
The mural was created by artist Leonid Tovstukha and transferred to the walls of the Sumy Library in 1988 by craftsmen from the Reshetylivka Factory
“Tree of Knowledge” Embroidered Shirt
Excerpts from the tapestry “The Tree of Knowledge,”
by Leonid Tovstukha
On the shirt, we’ve recreated the tapestry’s key symbols: a book, flowers, and birds. We see them as a reminder that knowledge is the foundation of development, intellect is a source of strength, and education opens up new opportunities, protects us, and helps us build a successful future
50% of the profit from each shirt sold, the SVARGA brand donates to the Boriviter Military School
