‘Orthodox Chic’ photo book shows bizarre aesthetic of makeshift churches in Ukraine


The Temple of the Holy Apostle Mark located in Kyiv is one of the churches photographed for Osnovy publishing house’s 2020 book “Orthodox Chic.” Without major funding from corporate churches to build a full-fledged church, some communities in Ukraine resort to transforming trailers and other spaces by simply placing a cross on the top of the structure.

It starts with a cross.

No one knows who put it there, in this small Ukrainian town. Maybe it’s just locals who are trying to strengthen their faith.
