Road of pain and hope.
This piece of art is dedicated to Ukrainian refugees who were forced to leave their homes due to the war in Ukraine.
The butterfly is shown as a symbol of death, rebirth and transformation. It means that we suffer a symbolic death within ourselves. We are forced to move on through pain and tragedy like a caterpillar that turns into a butterfly and gets the wings of freedom.

In 2008 she opened a new direction in art, called Esoteric Art and in 2010 as a young artist participated in an exhibition at the Kyiv Mironova Gallery. Hélène Litorelle's passion for ancient symbols led to the creation of her own niche brand of accessories and jewelry. In 2022 the personal exhibitions of Hélène Litorelle's works took place in Vienna: "Broken dreams. War diary from the Ukrainian shelter" and the presentation of the installation "The butterfly", dedicated to Ukrainian refugees from Russian military aggression. She also took part in the collective exhibition of Ukrainian artists in the Viennese cultural center Kulturgarage. All of the artist's latest works were created by combining her own drawings with newspaper clippings, and the news printed in the press found their embodiment in bright images.
