A standard deck of cards contains 54 cards, including two jokers. They all have different front sides and completely identical backs. This means that the cards’ second side is the deck’s most common image. If it is not the main plot, it plays the same role as the spine, supporting the entire body structure – the back of the card is the summation, the quintessence, defining the identity and narrative of the deck. The back of the UNBREAKABLE UKRAÏNA cards describes the main feature of struggling Ukraine: within a short period of time, a country consisting of multiethnic, multilingual, politically, religiously, and otherwise diverse elements formed an alloy of unprecedented strength, a united civil society able to withstand the onslaught of its evil enemy without trembling or backing down. Ukrainians, Russians, Poles, Tatars, Jews, and others – all merged into an unbreakable Ukraïna! Just as quickly, the peaceful, colorful, and cheerful folk Vyshivanka motif transformed into a camouflage pattern of defensive armor!
