A few years ago, the Ukrainian cinematographer Leonid Burlaka started experiencing memory loss. His grandson, 25-year-old Igor Ivanko, found a personal archive of film negatives in the garage. He scanned them and realised, that along with this fading photo archive the last memories of grandpaʼs life were disappearing. The materials were severely damaged, providing a poignant visual narrative and inspiring the concept for a documentary titled "Fragile Memory".
Presented here are some of these photographs, providing insights into Leonid Burlaka's contributions to cinematography and life. Additionally, the damaged emulsion creates an allegory for memory loss.

Hello, dear subscribers,
I'm Nick, and this channel has always been an archive for the things that inspire me and that I wish to preserve and share with you. I'm grateful to each of you for following this work, and I've decided to be more transparent from now.
The channel's name has been changed from MPGA to MPA for obvious reasons: to eliminate any association with MAGA.
The new name, "My Person Archive," reflects the true essence of this channel much better. Additionally, I want to share some of my own works with you for the first time. Previously, I didn't feel confident enough to showcase myself alongside the masterpieces I collect for this archive.
If you enjoy my works, you can follow me on Instagram: @shandranick, to see my daily documentations of the world and follow up the projects I'm currently working on.
Once again, thank you to all who have been following. I hope you found valuable inspiration here and I will try to post more regularly in the future. It's been a challenging few years for me, making it difficult to dedicate as much time to this channel as I want to. Nevertheless, this place remains a vital space for me and the best platform to discover and share the works that I admire with others.
If you have the time, I highly recommend to rewatch older posts, especially those featuring videos.

The Kharkiv School of Photography, originating in the 1970s in Kharkiv, Ukraine, was an artistic community that lacked official recognition. Instead of traditional classrooms, education unfolded in clubs and coffee shops.
Despite the absence of formal classes, the artists developed a unique visual language that defied the prevailing Soviet artistic norms. This unorthodox approach not only shaped the artistic dialogue in Kharkiv but also influenced subsequent generations throughout Ukraine. Over the course of more than 50 years, it transformed into a distinct aesthetic system, providing a documentary chronicle of its rich history.
In upcoming posts, we will showcase the works of the primary photographers from this artistic community.
