Further operation of a support center established in the conflict zone in eastern Ukraine.
Description
To raise funds for a homeless shelter and support center in Avdiivka, Ukraine, in the conflict zone of Eastern Ukraine, I will be selling two works of mine, a newspaper (photographs and text) and a short video, with proceeds going to the shelter.
Proceeds from sales of the newspaper and video (80% of the price of the newspaper and 100% of the price of the video) will be donated to the shelter, which is run by the remarkable Elena Pisareva, whose commitment to helping those in need in her Avdiivka community has been a great inspiration to me.
The money I raise will go to A. helping fund the shelter’s day-to-day operations, B. repairing the building’s roof, which has been damaged by shelling, and C. to help cover treatment costs for Elena Pisareva, who is battling cancer even as she keeps the shelter going.
PUBLICATION
Life Goes On, an exploration of daily life in the conflict zone, is a photobook in the form of a newspaper. It consists of a series of photographs and statements about the love and death of people living in the conflict zone.
This publication was made possible by the support of the Foundation for Visual Arts, which organises Krakow Photomonth, and PIX.HOUSE. It has been published as part of the ShowOFF Section exhibition at Krakow Photomonth 2019.
The newspaper is available at Zachęta – National Gallery of Art bookstore in Warszawa, at the PIX.HOUSE Gallery in Poznań, it will be also available at MOCAK (Museum of Contemporary Art in Krakow) bookstore or to be shipped by Polish Post.
