Art During Wartime: Bickerstaff.734

Bickerstaff.734 is an independent creative agency from Ukraine with offices in Kyiv and Lisbon. They were born during the height of the pandemic in 2020 and continue to move forward at full speed now, while Ukraine is at war.

In these three and a half years, both large and small businesses, government institutions, and international organizations have dared to work with them, creating major projects that have ultimately been recognized by many international festivals, such as: Cannes Lions, D&AD, Epica Awards, ADC Annual, Golden Drum, Effie Awards Europe, Comm Arts, and we also brought back the first-ever award for Ukraine from the London International Awards.
