About

With the support of the Canon Young People program, teenagers from Zaporizhzhia and Tbilisi spent two months learning to tell stories through visual language. They studied composition, worked with professional equipment, models, studio lighting, and analog photography.

In their photographic series, the students talk about their city, Ukrainian myths and legends, and what it's like to be young. They reflect on gadget addiction, the intersection of nature and humanity, and much more.

— 14 participants in Zaporizhzhia and 7 in Tbilisi presented their work;

— Around 70 people attended the exhibition opening;

— More than 50 postcards were sold, and the proceeds went to the artists;

— Students received KiNOcourse certificates for completing the masterclass under the auspices of the Canon Young People program 📸
