Thin Line
Ukrainian Photography
“It is like our memory, where the moments of life before the war emerge, but then we look around and back to our reality, our ruined cities where people were killed in the streets”, — says Kateryna Radchenko, curator, researcher of photography, founder of international festival of contemporary photography Odesa Photo Days.
On February 24, 2022 Russia started the full-scale war against Ukraine. Life there has changed inevitably: from daily routine to physical danger. Living under the fire, bombing and regular air raid sirens people of Ukraine walk on thin line between past and present, between mirage and reality.
