depression

depression attaches itself like an octopus' suckers to your brain and covers all your thoughts, words and actions, you are no longer you.

Hello! My name is Natalia. I am a photographer from Kyiv, Ukraine.

My passion for photography emerged during times of war. It was a period when I realized how essential photography is to me. It became not just a hobby but a salvation from depression and a source of inspiration.

I intend to advance my career as a photographer to convey beauty and meaning in the world through my photographs.
