"The Hedgehog Temple" is an art object in the form of a huge hedgehog, made of anti-tank hedgehogs — one of the symbols of Ukraineʼs defence during the full-scale war.
The authors of The Hedgehog Temple war memorial dedicated it to Ukrainians who "will never be able to go to Burning Man again because the war took them away."
"We have brought dozens of stories of fallen cultural figures to show that this war is not a 'military conflict', it is a people's war in which every conscious Ukrainian is involved," writes artist Oleksandr Slobodianiuk.
The team is also raising funds for evacuation vehicles.
