  • Photographer
    Sachov Alexej

The book will take you on a unique journey beneath the ocean's surface, showing the enigmatic beauty of waves, especially during the turbulence of storms. This photographic journey, captured through the lens of a scuba diver, invites you to explore the story of waves that mirrors our own life experiences; it's a metaphor for our journey through life.

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.
