Ukrainian art is put on show at Wembley Stadium with the aim to keep the war in the public eye.

This installation by Kateryna Gaidamak uses news cuttings to remind people of events in Ukraine

This collection features a seven-storey high portrait of Anna Domashyna - a Ukrainian woman who stayed in the country to help people in need throughout the conflict - which has been installed on the side of a car park.A giant digital screen installation has also been erected, urging passers-by to "remember Ukraine". It is displayed across two supersized screens at the entrance to the Wembley Park development, which is hosting the public gallery.

"As a curator, it is my honour and duty to enable artists to tell stories, especially about marginalised people and neglected places," Josh McNorton, cultural director of Wembley Park, said. "News about the war in Ukraine has been ubiquitous for months now, but I hope Wembley Park's summer exhibition showcases a new insight into this resilient and hopeful country. Ukrainian artists have a powerful perspective, and their stories need to be told now more than ever."
