The photo was taken in the town of Zolochiv, Kharkiv region. The town is under daily shelling by russian forces. Many civilian homes here have been destroyed or severely damaged. On the wall of one ruined house, I noticed a family photograph of the people who once lived there. Their peaceful life was shattered by the occupiers, who decided they could bring destruction and death to foreign land. This photo is not only about destruction, but about memory — the resilience of human presence even in the face of war.

I live in Kyiv.
I graduated from Kyiv Photography School.
I'm a Member of the National Society of Photo Artists of Ukraine.
I prefer genres - minimalism, street photography.
I regularly take part in Ukrainian and international photo exhibitions and photo contests.
