    Silver in Nature / Underwater

Embrace the ever-changing drama of the sea. Each wave, like life's moments, arrives distinct yet connected, forming the breathtaking spectacle of oceanic power and tranquility. As sunshine breathes life into these transient, towering water forms, we see a mirror of our existence – a myriad of small, seemingly insignificant events coalescing into an extraordinary narrative. Witness the calm transform into tempest, the old give way to the new, and remember: even the greatest waves are born of tiny ripples.

Alexej was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine. He obtained a diploma in rocket engineering and got photography education in the Kyiv School of Photography. In his artworks Alexej is trying to bring underwater photography to the new level - he investigates the water surface from the deep, uses allegories to show the underwater world like and the world above water or even like a cosmos. Alexej's education and philosophy of life define his style of photography: the photographs depict the beauty of the underwater world and the horrors of man-made ocean pollution.
