Description: SPELEOTHERAPY
This underground facility is situated within the Solotvyno salt mine near a small
Ukrainian villageof the same name, close to the Romanian border. It was opened
during Soviet times in the 1970s, and operates alongside the Ukrainian State
Allergy Hospital which is also located nearby.
The therapy which takes place at Solotvyno is based on a method known as Speleo-
therapy, an alternative therapy for asthma and other respiratory diseases. This
therapy was discovered in Poland in the 1950s when it was noticed that salt mine
workers rarely suffered from tuberculosis. Scientists found that the salt-permeated
air of the working salt mine helped to dissolve phlegm in the bronchial tubes a

Kirill Kuletski was born in Soviet Union but now lives and works in London, United Kingdom. Early 1990s he spent studying to be the Director of Photography for Film and TV within the faculty of Russian State Film University (now the Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography) and then worked as cameraman on major Russian TV channels. He moved to the United Kingdom in the mid 1990s, where he developed a career as a web and graphic designer. Kirill's passion turned towards the medium of photography, and in 2007 he was involved in his first group exhibition called "˜ID' where he exhibited techniques and experiments in the field of stereo (3D) photography. Kirill's most recent work explores the process of using photography as a means to capture mood, and to more closely replicate the exact atmosphere which the photographer experienced at the time when the picture was taken. His images specifically focus on situations where the subject being documented becomes a medium which translates the artist's state of mind into a visual form - one which can be experienced by others, accurately reflecting the feelings and emotions which were originally encountered.
