Nomination: The photo
Name of competitive work: Movie Nature. Abkhazia
Work size: 60 x 80 cm
Execution material: Photography
History of the creation of the work: Venturing beyond familiar environments, Vasilchenko becomes a traveller, perceiving the world with fresh eyes and rediscovering the meaning of human existence. Vasilchenko's series of photographic artworks dedicated to Abkhazia utilises colour contrasts and unusual lighting conditions, creating dramatic combinations of deep violet, blue, orange, and red, juxtaposed with a black structure of the bridge in the foreground.
These visual techniques, coupled with mystical natural effects, photographed with precise exposure to create a blurred mystical effect, evoke a sense of sacredness. Aleksei's work suggests that viewers are on the verge of discovering their true nature-a fundamental aspect of the healing process. Through his lens, Aleksei invites his audience to immerse themselves in the profound mysteries of existence and embrace the transformative journey toward self-discovery and healing.

Aleksei Vasilchenko is a photographer whose work transcends the boundaries of mere imagery, immersing himself in the essence of life, culture, and human existence. His artistic journey has taken him to various corners of the world, with Africa being one of the many countries that have left an indelible mark on his creative spirit.
Africa, with its rich tapestry of colors and profound contrasts, has been a profound source of inspiration for Aleksei. He finds himself drawn to the unique interplay of skin tones and the vivid contrasts of life on the continent. It's in this diverse and captivating landscape that he perceives the inherent value of human life, and he's acutely aware that in some regions, the price of life can be shockingly tangible, varying by a few hundred dollars.
Aleksei's creative endeavours are not just about capturing the world through his camera lens; they are a reflection of his own quest for self-discovery. He believes that in each new country he explores, he finds a new facet of his own identity. Photography, for him, serves as a tool to capture the subtle or fleeting details that often go unnoticed in our daily lives. It's a way of preserving memories and a glimpse into his inner vision, as seen through the camera lens.
Photography is the medium through which Aleksei interprets life and experiences it. It's his way of immortalizing moments, feelings, and memories.
Aleksei recognizes that although we all possess vision, our individual ways of seeing and perceiving the world are unique. His goal is to share his view with the world, and to provide others with a glimpse into his perspective. He views photography as a remarkable medium that transcends the boundaries of time, culture, and individual destinies. It is a bridge that connects generations and tells the stories of people's lives.
Aleksei's fascination with both vintage photographs from the '70s and contemporary, beautiful images fuels his creative fire. He finds it particularly intriguing to compare the same location in photos from different eras and of varying qualities. This reflection on the passage of time and the evolution of visual storytelling serves as a wellspring of inspiration for his work.
To Aleksei, the most compelling aspect of life is life itself. He recognizes that our memories and perceptions sometimes diverge from the actual photographs, forming a unique matrix that helps us vividly recall specific faces, moments, cultural details, and more. His camera is his constant companion during his travels because he sees the world as an immense canvas filled with emotions and feelings. Through his photography, he endeavours to capture and convey these emotions while witnessing the world and how people live in different countries.
