Last December I collaborated with @victoriagranof & @bossgonecrazy in New York on a personal project A Carp in The Tub. With the help of @owen__evans @darkroomdigital_uk this turned into a self published book which is now stocked @thephotographersgallery @magculture @donlonbooks & soon more independent bookshops. This is a dream come true and one of the projects I’m most proud of. Thank you @victoriagranof for sharing your story. It was a total joy and privilege to collaborate with you and @bossgonecrazy ❤️Thanks @owen__evans and @darkroomdigital_uk for your mega skills in turning the images into something greater. ✨ We’ve not shared the images yet but you can see them there 📘✨ #printisnotdead #selfpublishbehappy . . . . #foodphotography #louisehagger @assocphoto #rarebrag #stilllifephotography #ACarpintheTub #selfpublish #book #artistbook #foodart #foodieodicals #print #selfpublished #art #newyork #adoption #womeninphotography #collaboration #dreamscometrue #instagood #instdaily #magculture #Ukraine #recipes #welovemagazines #victoriagranof #irvingpenn #love #visualfeast #visualhunger (at MagCulture)

Not Natalia’s Borscht. ・・・ “She was poor but that was no excuse. I suspect that even if given free access to high quality ingredients, Natalia’s borscht would still be awful.” ・・・ A Carp in the Tub is an artist collaboration by Food Stylist Victoria Granof, Photographer Louise Hagger and Prop Stylist JoJo Li. In words, pictures and recipes, it tells the weird and wonderful story of  Granof's winter-long journey to adopt her infant son in Ukraine. 
 The work is presented as a set: a folded poster and a booklet. Inside the booklet are a suite of seven photographs with corresponding recipes, and a not funny-but funny essay written by Granof. The poster unfolds into an A3 size to reveal the carp in the tub. ・・・ A Carp in the Tub can be seen @thephotographersgallery @magculture @donlonbooks @tipitinbooks @selfpublishbehappy @magazinebrighton @taa_chan 📘 . . . . . . . . #foodphotography #louisehagger @assocphoto @rarebytrayler #rarebrag #stilllifephotography #ACarpintheTub #victoriagranof #jojoli #selfpublish #artistbook #foodart #foodieodicals #print #selfpublished #art #adoption #womeninphotography #instagood #printisnotdead #thephotographersgallery #recipes #borscht #staywarm #onepot #notnataliasborscht #home #ukraine #homecooking #selfpublishbehappy #dinnertable #family (at Ukraine) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtNwYVnnQ2x/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9w9h8bfdgj7g

Repost @victoriagranof with @get_repost ・・・ “Every day I’d go to the one under-stocked pharmacy in town and buy disposable diapers and honey cake for the babies in the orphanage. Wasn’t long before I realized the nurses had been reusing a very few diapers, whilst selling the rest for cash. And doing a brisk business in honey cake”. From A Carp in the Tub, a dream collaboration between @louisehagger @bossgonecrazy and me. In it, we recreated my memory of the winter I spent in Ukraine while adopting my son. I developed an addiction to Nescafé and pickled tomatoes. #ogfoodstylist #feastyoureyes #Ukraine #medovic #Nescafe #ukrainianfood . . . . .

#TBT & missing NY ❤️ A total dream of a collaboration with @victoriagranof & @bossgonecrazy 💫 Repost @victoriagranof with @get_repost ・・・ “The monthly salary for an orphanage nurse in Ukraine in 2005 was 125 American dollars. I was renting Natalia’s kruschyovka for 30 dollars a day while she and her son moved in with her parents. In appreciation, every few days she would return and cook us something horrid.” From A Carp in the Tub, a collaboration between @louisehagger @bossgonecrazy and me.

Repost @victoriagranof 💙💛 Seventeen years ago I lived for a winter in Kyiv, then the tiny town of Smila, Cherkassy where my son was born. No matter how American he is now, Feodor Valery (Theo)will always be a Ukrainian, with a heart that is strong and kind and courageous. Right now he is complaining about his homework and not being allowed Coca Cola for dinner but if he was there, I know for sure he would be taking up arms and fighting for his motherland. This picture is from the artist collaboration A Carp in the Tub with @louisehagger and @bossgonecrazy, chronicling that winter in Ukraine and the journey to adopt my son. . “As you attack, it will be our faces you see, not our backs” - Volodymyr Zalenskyy #standwithukraine #stopwarinukraine 💙💛 Please help to share and donate to: http://wings-phoenix.org.ua/en/donate/ @oliahercules’ @paypaluk who has daily contact with her family who are helping get supplies to those in need olia.woodhouse@gmail.com https://donate.chooselove.org/campaigns/ukraine-appeal/ https://donate.redcross.org.uk/appeal/ukraine-crisis-appeal 💙💛 (at Ukraine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CanYtuAIi4t/?utm_medium=tumblr

Repost @victoriagranof 💙💛 There are no hotels in the Ukrainian town of Cherkassy. When I arrived in the winter of 2005 to adopt my son, a very kind nurse from the orphanage moved her family into her mother’s house so I could stay in their krushchyovka - a typical Soviet-era concrete-block apartment. Every few days she would check in on me and put a new batch of bread scraps on the radiator to dry. With these she made kvass, (a fermented drink akin to kombucha) to feed the children. . Theo and I created a fundraiser to help World Central Kitchen @wckitchen feed displaced Ukrainian families at the Polish border. Please give - every little bit helps. Just click on the link in my bio. Thank you. . “Victory is when weapons become silent and people speak up” - Volodymyr Zalenskyy. .
