Photographs: Vic Bakin

Text: Joanna L. Cresswell

Publisher: Void

176 pages

ISBN: 9786185479350

Price: 57

Comments: ills colour & bw, 21 x 26 cm, 750 copies, Screenprinted Hardcover

For Vic Bakin, ‘Epitome’ is a fairly personal visual journey, an attempt to look at some things more than once. It is also an elaboration on the consequences and entanglements of war for a young generation of Ukrainian men. The series consists of pictures shot in war-torn places he visited between 2022 and 2023, as well as pictures printed from his own archive of previous years. While navigating the wounded land, he looks for a glimmer of hope in people and places. The prints, produced by Bakin in his bathroom in Kyiv during the Russian air raids, convey a distinct, delicate black-and-white tactility that resonates with the historical images from other wars in the past.
