I dedicate this column to all the struggling storytellers from Russia and beyond.
Beautiful, crazy ones whose commitment urges them to tell stories and illustrate talent; this motivates and inspires me. Beautiful, crazy ones whose work exists, sometimes against all odds in this struggling market.

Commemorative photos | Alexander Vasukovich

Minsk based photographer Alexander Vasukovich popped up on my radar with a project on domestic violence in Belarus. I was following his work called One out of every three women. The project is a profound and empathetic portrayal of the issue and is centered around a women’s shelter in Minsk.
