A PORTRAIT OF SURVIVAL

The road took me from Lviv to Kyiv to Kharkiv. From the cafés in Lviv to a place, close enough to the front line to hear shelling in the distance.

I decided to call this series 'A Portrait of Survival'. I saw a basketball court in front of a destroyed school building; women walking past ruins; bullet holes in the walls of a residential building. This represents the spirit in all of us.

дорога привела мене зі Львова до Києва, а потім до Харкова. Від львівських кав’ярень до місця, розташованого настільки близько до лінії фронту, що вдалині було чутно обстріл.

Я вирішив назвати цю серію «Ціною життя». Я бачив баскетбольний майданчик перед зруйнованою школою; жінок, що йшли повз руїни; сліди від куль на стінах житлового будинку. Це втілює дух, який живе в кожному з нас.

ABOUT

Maximilian Majewski is based in Gothenburg. His work begins with documentary observation and fine-art photography.

He works through image, sequence, and form. Distance, repetition, and time shape the photographs; editing and writing shape how individual moments become stories.

Available for prints, exhibitions, editorial projects, collaborations, and selected commissions.
