Julia Kochetova x Fine Acts
Stories from a nation under fire. Stories from a nation made of hope, pride, and resilience. When the war in Ukraine started, hundreds of thousands of civilians left their previous lives behind, and volunteered to protect their homeland.
Who are these people? Is such bravery superhuman, or the most intrinsic human trait there is? Along with her regular equipment, Ukrainian photographer Julia Kochetova decided to use old Russian prism lenses, making a powerful point. Instead of being broken, the country’s spirit has been multiplied.
