Pupils from St Paul and St Timothy’s Catholic Infant School in West Derby and Anfield Road Primary worked with visual artist MrASingh to design the Liverpool egg called Nadiya [pronounced na-dee-ya] as part of the Pysanka Egg Display.

Amrit Singh explains: “Nadiya, which means Hope in Ukrainian, is based on the traditional art of pysanka egg decoration, featuring vibrant colours and geometric designs. The egg’s surface is painted in shades of yellow and metallic gold, representing light, purity, and strength. The blue accents on the egg symbolise good health and wisdom, while the intricate patterns and texture represent growth, love, and caring. The sculpture stands tall and proud, an enduring symbol of Ukrainian heritage and tradition, exuding a sense of respect and hope.”
