Dmytro Kupriyan
Dmytro Kupriyan (b. 1982) is a photographer and a photojournalist from Kyiv, Ukraine. He worked as a photojournalist at UNIAN news agency.
"I started to work on the topic of tortures and for three years I was developing a project about tortures in Ukrainian police (project "TORTURED"), then I shifted to the topic of violence in a wider meaning making projects about war in Ukraine” (projects "Fragments of War", "Banality of Aggression" and "When The War Is Over”).
When the full-scale Russian aggression in Ukraine started in 2022, Kupriyan was drafted to the army. He is now serving as a press-officer, which allows him to produce artwork.
The current project, The Art of War / The Art of Machine Gun Maintenance, is ongoing. It consists over 300 triptychs now.
