Honorable Mention

Support
DESCRIPTION
My photo series on the theme of "Support" explores the various forms and dimensions of strength, care, and connection that sustain us in everyday life. The images capture moments where natural elements like fruits and flowers embody resilience, nurturing, and mutual reliance. Through these compositions, I aim to express how support goes beyond physical assistance to include emotional bonds and the quiet presence that gives us stability.Support, to me, is the invisible yet essential foundation that helps us endure and grow. The photographs invite viewers to reflect on the often unnoticed sources of strength in our lives and to appreciate the delicate balance between vulnerability and endurance.
AUTHOR
I am a 45-year-old Ukrainian living in Germany. By education, I am a lawyer, and currently, I work supporting refugees in Germany. My professional work involves not only expertise but also a deep personal commitment to people facing difficult life circumstances.Since 2024, I have developed a passion for photography, which for me is much more than a hobby. Photography is a feeling and a state of being—it is a way to express emotions and moods. This creative journey allows me to explore new dimensions of myself and the world around me.
