Singer Artist Chuprunenko, who recently presented a new video for the song “Kamin”, in which she reflects on the loss of home, the experience of war and a person’s ability to remain sensitive to other people’s pain, said in an interview with ZN. UA Yulia Moskalenko that the title of the song symbolizes the internal burden that a person experiences during the war.

" If you know how to love, you automatically know how to suffer very much. You can't pretend that life is still the same,"

The singer dedicated her new work to Ukrainians who remain in the temporarily occupied territories and refuse to accept Russian propaganda. Marusya Chuprinenko notes that the line between “survival” and “preservation of identity” often lies in everyday decisions - in what people watch, how they communicate and with whom they stay close.

As an example of such resistance, she cited the experience of her mother, who, together with her neighbors, organized an informal community: people gather, read the Bible and even consecrated Easter eggs on their own for Easter, since the priest could not come.

“This says a lot about people’s resistance, precisely about their refusal to believe that now it will be like this and you have to go to a church that you don’t want to go to,” she pointed out..
