Ruslan Hrushchak was born in Ukraine, but has lived in Germany for the past twenty years. The images featured in ‘The Road Beyond’ take viewers on a journey to Hrushchak’s home country: a few years ago, he followed an inner impulse to start photographing his family, relatives and friends in western Ukraine and the Carpathian Mountains. He continued to trace their paths along a branching web of roots and memories that extends across the entire country: a journey in search of happiness. The stories and biographies captured in these images convey life in a country – and in a version of Europe – we are familiar with, but which no longer exists.
