This action was a show of support for a NATO-backed no-fly zone over Ukraine.
The flyer made the group’s position clear, stating that this is no longer a local conflict.
Act now to save the world.

In a statement toHyperallergic, the artists gave the context behind their performance.
We want to draw attention to the Russian war in Ukraine.
For Betty Roytburd, a Ukrainian-born artist based in New York, participating in the performance was important.
A third world war could start if we dont do anything to stop Putin.
This war already affects the entire world, she said.
Russia has taken over two nuclear plants, one of them is the largest in Europe.
This concerns the entire planet.
Not giving Ukraine a no-fly zone is basically telling Putin that he can keep going.
