Photo Exhibition “The Choice”

Today, our gallery opened a photo exhibition on canvas by Oleksandr Fitiak — a soldier and combat veteran. The author has been involved in photography for eight years and also explores philosophical movements such as Stoicism and Existentialism.

The photo series “The Choice” reflects the author’s opinion about the events in Ukraine. The first image, titled “Peace”, shows a girl with flowers sitting under a tree, reading. The photo is blurry, as if taken from a great distance — symbolizing how, for a soldier on the front, peace feels like a distant dream, a beautiful illusion.

The second photo, titled “Becoming”, shows a girl with a shield and represents Ukraine making its choice — to defend its independence.

The third image, “Turning Point”, portrays a girl holding a flag. It symbolizes the strength of the Ukrainian spirit and the recognition of national identity. The fourth photo, “Battle”, depicts thick smoke, symbolizing evil and chaos.

The final piece, titled “The Choice”, shows a girl with a flag and a sword. It represents the critical moment when the future of the country depends on each of us.

The artist’s works are skillfully composed and invite the viewer to reflect on the reality we face today.

We warmly invite you to visit the exhibition!
