"Odesa" is a collection of works by Jelena Yamchuk, a multi-talented female artist from Ukraine. Yamchuk rose to fame through her collaboration with Smashing Pumpkins, one of the most successful alternative bands in the chaotic American rock scene of the 1990s, creating a uniquely distinctive world. More recently, in 2022, when her hometown was at war with Russia, she released "yYY," a collection of her personal archives including photographs and paintings. Her work is captivating, blending subcultural images, such as those of teenagers, with documentary and artistic elements. This work is a collection of images taken in Odessa, Ukraine's third-largest port city. Yamchuk describes Odessa as "a city that is both accepting and dangerous, a city full of jokes and individuality, a city where outlaws and intellectuals live." For Jelena, who moved to Odessa at a young age, it is a special city. The timing of its release, during a time of great damage caused by war, also conveys a strong sense of purpose. 2nd printing.
