Sergey Melnitchenko: On MYPH, Provocation as a Method, and Photography in a Post-Traumatic Society

Listen on

The guest of the seventh episode is photographer, artist, and founder of MYPH, Sergey Melnitchenko. We talk about alternative art education and how to build your own photography school when you can’t find answers in academies. We discuss why it’s important not to fear provocation in Ukrainian art, how to survive without institutional support, and why sometimes it’s better to create a new scene yourself than wait for recognition. We also touch on international exhibitions, art books, teaching experience, and how photography can become a form of dialogue in a post-traumatic society.
