The Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographers (UAPP) partnered with Chekachkov Photo Academy to hold a competition for the best visual diary created during quarantine.
Participants documented their daily lives during the quarantine period, creating a visual diary within the confines of their apartments. Over the course of two months (from March 20 to May 20), the jury received more than 1,000 photographs that conveyed experiences of self-isolation.
The outcome of the competition was a group online exhibition titled "Those Who Are Alone," featuring the best photographs taken as part of the competition initiated by Chekachkov Photo Academy. UAPP presented the winner with a book by Oleksandr Chekmenyov titled "Passport."
