‘AS_IT_WAS’ by ALIYA
PRIMARY - 11 SEP 2024
"I'm Ukrainian. While I was shooting, a couple of things happened. I heard an air alarm outside because of the war we have; I noticed how peaceful my room looked; and how it was strangely unbalanced in general. I think, the art of photos where you can be vulnerable in your true self, with the nudity of your mind and body - and the outside world that may be scary and a loud place. The silence of my room and the sounds of bombs outside the window reminded me of how short and beautiful our life is. And my art and photos are my way to experience and show that beauty of human beings. Even if the outside of my window is trying to change that opinion of mine, I still will be there. Vulnerable, nude and with my whole open soul to the world."
