WARNING EXTREMALY DISTURBING PICS


Gorsad Kyiv is a photography collective consisting of three artists: Viktor Vasiliev, Maria Romaniuk, and Ulik Romaniuk. Based in Kyiv, Ukraine, the group has collaborated with many galleries, magazines, musicians, and brands such as I-D Vice, Dazed & Confused, Skim milk, Hood by Air, Ariel Pink, and others.

In 2022, Gorsad Kyiv was named in PhotoVogue’s list of “100 Next Great Fashion Image Makers”.


One only needs to take a look at a few pics taken by Gorsad to realize one thing: There is something terribly wrong with them. Everything about their work refers directly to pedophilia, child abuse, and sex trafficking. Many children in these pictures appear deeply unwell as if they are actual victims of human trafficking that are constantly drugged and abused.

Instead of being alarmed by these pictures, “industry experts” actually celebrate Gorsad and reward them with lucrative contracts. And, since the Ukraine war, the collective is touted as “freedom fighters” by the media as it urges people to support them with donations. Are you crazy?


Their list of clients includes TTSWTRS, Litkovskaya, Luxoptica, Skim milk LA, Tender and Dangerous, HOOD BY AIR, Alan Badoev, Max Barskih, Ariel Pink, Dazed magazine, Desillusion Skatebording, and Cashbroke. Gorsad's work has been published in large magazines including Vogue, L'officel, Numero, Liberation, Dazed magazine, Kapital-noviny, I-D, Vice, Dust, Tush, Trip mag, Tissue Mag, S Mag, and more.

While I don't recognize most of their clients, having Vouge, Marie Claire and Vice promoting them is scandalous, to say at least.

"Photography collective Gorsad has spent years documenting the youth of Kyiv. As the war wages on, "

Someone's deep dive into their now defunct website and still up with some pics deleted Instagram



I could find only these two articles, while lots of people talk about it on social mediia

IDK what's your issue, did these two websites made it up or what?

These Instagram photos are all still public, as was their website that's now closed but available in archive.
