An American of Ukrainian descent, Katherine Turczan, has been visiting and photographing Ukraine since the early 1990s. Throughout this time, she has been taking portraits of people and documenting the changes that were happening during the collapse of the Soviet Union.
I can see influence of Doretha Lang. Very thought provoking.
Pretty photos, but also pretty depressive ones. Probably by intention they look like photos from Great Depression of 1930’s in US. In reality, life in Ukraine was much more colorful and cheerful in that time.
Amazing Photos! Great – i love them
Wow! Great photos. Strong 60s in America vibes from most of these photos.
You can tell it’s old because they don’t smile. Classic black and white picture poses.
Excellent shots
Some of the kids in these photos are likely on the frontline now.
take my pics from growing up in Arkansas and put them side by side and you couldn’t tell the difference
Beautiful people in a beautiful country.. held back by toiletless russia for centuries
