On January 11, Kiev said goodbye to Maxim “Dali” Kryvtsov. Volunteer, soldier, junior sergeant, teacher of the children's camp “Motley Raccoons”. Poet. In December 2023 Maxim Kryvtsov published his first poetry book, he was at the very beginning of a brilliant literary career. We will never know what his poetic voice would be like, how he would change, grow up.
The farewell took place in St. Michael's Cathedral, and then on the Independence Square. Above the funeral procession, which moved through the streets of Kiev from the cathedral to the Maidan, the voice of Maxim sounded, his poems sounded.
The photo of Evgeny Zavgorodny was taken on the Maidan. Black and white photography swallows all the colors of the farewell. Here it is impossible to see neither the Ukrainian pixel of Maxim's brothers, nor the purple of violets, tulips and irises, which they carried to farewell, remembering the line from Maxim's poem about the germination of violets in spring, nor the stripes and lines of the cat of the girl who came here with him, nor a red shawl that another girl tried to weave right here, while family and friends remembered Maxim. Even more: the photo is made in such a way that it swallows not only the colors with which those who loved him are trying so desperately to fill the farewell to Maxim, but also those who came to say goodbye to him. The contours of their bodies are blurred, the outlines of their faces erased, it is impossible to recognize someone. They all end up on the other side of reality. And only the body of Maxim in an open coffin on this side of it. This almost surreal effect — the absence of those who remain with those who are no longer here — captures the tragedy with which our lives are permeated. And appeals to the piercing Maxim poem, a quote from which Zavgorodny chooses as a caption for his photo. In the poem, such transparent memories of childhood, when it was necessary to find money for “Southern Night” sweets, turn into a black reality in which it is necessary to look for the bodies of dead brothers so that loved ones could say goodbye to them. The poem ends with a merciless line about a war that does not end, but “people end.”
Those with whom we say goodbye today, those whom the Russian Federation takes away from us, remain with us. But there remains a deep feeling of emptiness. Empty where their voices, words, deeds were. Empty where you could take them by the hand, write or call them. Their absence becomes more real than our daily lives. It absorbs everything and acquires a symbolic meaning. I look at the black and white photo of the farewell to Maxim Kryvtsov on Maidan Nezalezhnosti and ask the fellow photographer: “How was this shot?” “Long exposure,” she replies. And explains that the period of time for which the shutter of the camera opens was such that the light accessed the matrix of the device for a longer time than usual. “Our shutter speed has to be long,” I think, forgetting what we're talking about in terms of photographic technology.
We are grateful work.ua for supporting the photographic community and helping to strengthen Ukrainian voices.
