Hi, I'm Kateryna Tolmachova, a Ukrainian photographer currently living in Turin, Italy.

Welcome to my world of photography - the bridge between factual reality and free imagination. When I notice a detail in everyday life, it has movement, colors, sounds, smells, and even stress in it, but after my camera's shutter clicks, it becomes a mystery covered by silver grain.

Since I saw taking, developing and printing black and white film photos when I was a kid in the '80s, it immediately became my number one passion and a go-to mental therapy.
Through decades I've kept this habit, lived in 2 continents and 3 countries and changed several photo-enlargers.
I can spend a night developing or scanning films, printing photos or experimenting without feeling tired or noticing time.
