Карiбочки – “boxes” Vladyslav Krasnoshchok’s ‘Karibochki’ is a strange and magnetic fusion of his three passions. The first one is love to photography supported by his absolute and acknowledged mastery and talent for photography. On relatively common for a-century-from- the-present-time pictures made in a photo atelier his attentive eye doesn’t miss an interesting shot, unusual face, weird detail or situation. Another one – is passion to the past. Old things, old films, music, old-time photography. This passion is both existential (to a texture, paper, color and smell itself) and ‘curious’ – what was there, who are these people, what is the history behind the picture? Impossibility to guess creates desire to make it up. To make up means to give a new life. To revive, to prolong, to immortalize. One more artist’s passion is admiration for form, for external harmony and beauty. ‘I proceed from form’, says Vlad. ‘Form creates meanings. ’
