Kharkiv School of Photography: Soviet Censorship to New Aesthetics: 
Part 3 - Contemporary Photographers Exhibition 2

Lana Yankovska

Lana Yankovska (b. 1981, lives in Kiev) started studying photography in 2012. She also attended Roman Pyatkovka’s lectures, but the series presented here was made even before Yankovska learned about the Kharkiv School of Photography.

In Drowned Memories (2012) Lana Yankovska uses the Kharkiv School hallmark “overlays” technique based on found material - scanned negatives shot by the artist’s grandfather. The grandfather’s amater images portray the artist’s mother and uncle as children, the sites of her native Lviv, the places where she lived as a child, the family history in general. To create an image of the flow of time burying one’s past, Yankovska digitally merges “found memories” with photos of water.
