Andriy Kis. Slyoza i kamin. Passages through old cemeteries in Galicia. (Tear and Stone)

"The photo album by Andriy Kis "Tear and Stone" is a spectacular journey through old, forgotten, and broken down cemeteries of Galician villages and towns. Separate cemeteries, such as the one in the Old Town in Ternopil, or in Demnya in Lviv region, entire ensembles, open-air museums, a sort of "unmelting sculpture gardens". The highly creative works by folk masons of Galicia – as if an echo of creations of the Ancient Egypt or Sumeria, the Antiquity or the Renaissance – are evidences of the deep links between the Ukrainian culture and the global heritage. Stone conveys the unique images of the Virgin and Jesus Christ, the Apostles Peter and Paul, St. Barbara, Catherine, Parasceva, Basil, Nicholas, Stephen, Constantine, John, Anthony, Dimitri, Joseph, Joachim, Onuphrius, angels and archangels..."
