On the birthday of Kobzar, sculptor Taras Shevchenko died at the front.


On the birthday of Taras Shevchenko, March 9, a 25-year-old sculptor and defender died at the front. This was reported by the 'Glavkom' website citing a message from Ivan Rusev, an employee of the national park, on Facebook.
Taras Shevchenko graduated from the Grekov Odesa Art College. At the beginning of the conflict with the Russian Federation, he went to defend Ukraine together with his father Oleksandr.
In civilian life, Taras worked at the national natural park 'Tuzlivski Lymany'.
A young, extraordinarily bright artist from Ukrainian Bessarabia has been lost. He was killed by the war, which he immediately went to defend alongside his father Oleksandr when Russia invaded our country. Once, in the territory 'Tuzlivska Amazonia' in the national natural park 'Tuzlivski Lymany', a magnificent pelican named 'Dedal' appeared a few years ago. This sculpture, made of gypsum, is life-sized, demonstrating its grandeur. Then Taras created more sculptures of a Scythian woman and man. These amazing sculptures are a memory of an extraordinarily talented person, taken by the cursed war. Eternal and bright memory.
Earlier, we reported the death of poet, combat medic, and cardiologist Volodymyr Volikov. His comrade Oleksii Sahalovskii wrote about it.
With great sorrow, I report that yesterday the heart of my friend and comrade, co-author of songs, and renowned combat medic Volodymyr Volikov stopped beating. I want to express my sincere condolences to his family and friends. There were so many plans, how could this have happened, Volikov...
Another comrade of Volodymyr noted that the poet died from wounds he sustained.
We also reported that actor Oleksii Samoylenko died at the front. According to his friend Kateryna Hryhorenko, Samoylenko passed away on February 19.
I still cannot imagine this. We saw each other a few days ago when Lyosha was in Kyiv for the weekend. I want to remember him alive and weightless, just as he was that day. Lyosha never spoke excessively and never complained. There was such sincerity and dignity in him that I always felt a bit ashamed of myself next to him.
