Georgia, South Ossetia: Life After War
Citing the words of James Heintz as an introduction, Kirill Tulin's photo essay begins, "Last August, the obscure Georgian separatist province of South Ossetia grabbed world attention as the flashpoint of a war between Georgia and Russia. The fighting inflicted massive damage on South Ossetia’s capital Tskhinvali and further battered already-impoverished villages in the countryside."
These circumstances and the aftermath of this brief yet powerfully destructive conflict is the subject of Kirill Tulin's photo reportage, Georgia, South Ossetia: Life After War, now appearing on Gaia Photos, a new international photography source comprised of 41 photojournalists from around the world whose mission is to promote quality and diversity in documentary photography.
Born in 1989 in Moscow, Russia, Kirill Tulin began his photography career at the age of just 16 when he got his first camera. At 18, he began working as a staff photographer at the Kommersant newspaper in Moscow.
After 2 years, Tulin resigned from Kommersant in order to focus on his own documentary work.
Currently based in Moscow, Russia Kirill Tulin continues to pursue a long-term project in South Ossetia.
