“Shooting the things and people I liked or noticed, I found myself as an artist and put my perception of Ukrainian reality into photography that I produce and now I constantly working on my personal projects, combining social documentary with snap-shots from my diary. Both of them are about truth and honesty, although they are mostly unpleasant and rough. I am really happy to be born in Ukraine nevertheless our country is full of problems. I learnt to get inspired by everything that surrounds me, that’s why I never give up my camera and shoot everything I see, all sides of life in Ukraine: from good-looking girls and models to homeless people who sleep in the streets.” – Kristina Podobed on this monograph.
