This photobook brings together over three decades of work by documentary photographer Oleksandr Glyadyelov (b. 1956). Known for his black-and-white images made with a Leica camera, he captures not only events and individuals, but the vulnerable states of society itself — moments when structures crack, when supports collapse, and something essential reveals itself in that fragility. Although Glyadyelov’s photographic practice spans different countries and contexts — from Central Asia to Africa — this book focuses exclusively on images made in Ukraine. This position defines the book’s composition: instead of a chronology, it is structured thematically, around four central directions of his practice — the 1990’s as a period of transformation and disintegration; Children as a gaze from within a vulnerable condition; Protest as a phase of civic self-determination; and War as a long-term subject the photographer has been documenting in Ukraine and beyond.
