On February 16, 2024, Russian Wikinews attended Russian photographer Viktor Pinchuk's last exhibition in Sevastopol, Crimea.

The project was conceived and implemented in a virtual format; this is already the second experience of using the new method by a Crimean resident. The organizer was the Sevastopol Center for Culture and Arts.

The exhibition, which included material collected over almost twenty years of travel and long expeditions around the planet, was called Street Sketches ((ru))Russian language: ‍Уличные зарисовки ((ru)) which quite accurately reflects its content. Scenes from the life of aborigines from distant countries of Africa, Asia, Latin America and Oceania, were captured by the author, who by chance found himself in the right place at the right time.

The event was held in the premises of the People's Photo Club "Brig". The audience were mostly photographers, which made it possible to more accurately and professionally evaluate the works of the creator of the exhibition. Pinchuk commented on each of the photographs, as if temporarily moving the participants of the event into another, partly parallel world, enveloping them in an exotic atmosphere of distant travels through little-known corners of the globe that not everyone is destined to visit.
