This photo series is a visual journey on the border of reality, dream and fantasy through a surreal story about flowers coming to life.
The story begins with a moment of separation - the owner leaves, leaving her home and garden. This act of departure becomes a catalyst for an amazing transformation: flowers, symbols of nature and beauty, go beyond their usual role and begin to imitate human life.
Was this whole story just a delusion caused by separation from home, or an allegory of the transience of life and beauty?
And only autumn returned everything to a "normal" state?

I am a citizen of Ukraine. I have lived here almost since birth and I love my city very much.
I received an economic education, worked in the banking sector, but I was fond of photography since school.
I studied at Fotomaster (Abramov, Levit and others), at Kukorenchuk V.V. at the Ukrteleradiopressinstitute and at master classes of photographers. I do not stop studying now: this year I took a photography course at the MYPH school.
I participate in photography exhibitions, including 3 personal ones.
