20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
abstract #54 spoiled negative

I started this project at the beginning of the war in Ukraine. Before the war I was interested in film photography. These are all analog pic from my archive, I use film and spoil it with the help of various solvents, I experiment with abstract images, the whole result of my work is completely random, since we have a war in my country and I can't take photos with complete freedom at this time, because before that I practiced street photography, that's why I have such a vision of photography today.
