Discover the intricate world of Pysanky, the centuries-old Ukrainian tradition of decorating Easter eggs using wax, flame, and vibrant dyes. Master artist Dr. Ihor Kunasz, apprentice Rebecca Lennon, and Juliana Osinchuk share how each egg becomes more than art, but a symbol of heritage, faith, and resilience. From ancient origins to modern day, The Art of Pysanky explores how culture is preserved and passed along one delicate line at a time.
