“The earth is an art; a photographer is only a witness” The images captures by them are considered as mirrors of our life. Today we will be talking about such a photographer who can bring life to an image. Dexterously combined colors and elegantly detailed, Valerii Tkachenko’s photographs are gems of the landscape genre; they look real and inspiring which invents new form of photography art. He is specialized into city landscape and architecture photo. He even dabbles in nature photography.
Valerii Tkachenko’s pictures show cityscapes and nature scene, he even adds a painterly softness to the picture which brings “the historical aspect of common life” into focus by him. Tkachenko also integrates elements found in traditional Chinese style in his works, noting his admiration for the photographer Dong Hong Oai who has combined the camera with calligraphy to recreate the aura of conventional paintings. His work outshines from others due to his ability to implement his ideas and influences into a compelling, real alive vision which connects immediately with the viewer. He says that he wants the scene to produce an emotional response. Valerii Tkachenko was born in the Poltava region of Ukraine and today lives in Kiev. He has exhibited in Italy, Austria, England, and the United States.
When asked about his photography skills and his love for photography, he states “I love experimenting with the traditional Chinese style, incorporate calligraphy and try to depict an ancient style in my modern, urban photographs. My efforts are driven towards artistically documenting the historical aspects of the common life and the good in every life. I want other to feel the same emotions on seeing the pictures that I feel. Through my pictures, though I depict the modern and urban world, I tend to show them as if they existed outside the time”
Tkachenko travels around the world for this best hobby to capture the most romantic city images such as Venetian canals and Parisian bicycle stand , but also often ignored urban beauties such as medieval alleyways and bays crisscrossed by fishing boats. Tkachenko’s influences are diverse, ranging from ancient Chinese calligraphy to twentieth century photographers like Ansel Adams, Don Hong-Oai, and Alfred Stieglitz. He also experiments with different printing and coloring processes including, recently, photogravure, to achieve subtle shifts in atmosphere: a warm sepia tint for a lit-up Bruges Street, versus a majestic blue-gray wash for a snow-covered mountain. For Tkachenko, landscape is an emotional subject. The viewer should not only see the image, but enter into the environment and experience it.
