MYPH is the first photography publication about the Young Mykolaiv Photography School, which was founded in 2018 by Serhiy Melnychenko. It began in Melnychenko's hometown, but now his students are all over Ukraine and abroad."

"When I conceived the School," says Serhiy, "I wanted to work on expanding the understanding of contemporary photography among photographers, colleagues, and students. I wanted professional growth and communication. And we have done a lot in the four years of MYPH's existence: in addition to practical training, we have organised and participated in more than twenty projects (exhibitions, festivals, fairs, etc.) in Ukraine, Poland, Italy, France, Austria, and South Korea. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, the school created its own NFT collection. It contains 333 photographs, and 50% of the proceeds from their sales are donated to help the army and those affected by the war."

Serhiy Melnychenko selected 60 authors for the photo book as a compiler. The designer Kateryna Lesiv suggested the idea of dialogues, so that the photographers could continue to communicate with the teacher and the authors of the book, tell about their searches, thoughts and dreams.
