ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The January days of Svyatki (Russian Christmastide) "from the star to the water" are a turning point, the border period. At this time The Sun turns from winter to summer; the day shifts from darkness to light, chaos is replaced by divine orderliness. The notions of the arrival of the souls of the dead and the rampage of evil forces are bound up with the "borderness" of the period. It was believed that the invisible presence of spirits provides an opportunity to look into the future than the girls enjoyed with pleasure. The series is inspired by the theme of Svyatki divination and vivid metaphors that were used in the Slavic rites. The Lubok colors, a sense of humor, the ancient Russian melancholy, the atmosphere of a fairy tale and the multinational composition - perhaps this is what led Russian culture to what it is now.

I am a photographer and designer from Moscow, working in the genre of staged photography, creating projects about people and stories. Each of my series is a version of what life could be like if I were a different person like a traveler, a re-enactor, a historian at Cairo University, a representative of the Miao people around Luang Prabang, or the owner of a baroque mansion in 19th century London. A photographer can look behind closed doors and encounter other cultures and professions. So in my shoots I immerse myself in a whole spectre of themes with their accents, aesthetics and meanings. I try everything that attracts me and seems to be a parallel universe. Topics that invariably excite me: - renaissance aesthetics, renaissance person (universal human being); - ethnography, cultural peculiarities, the history of the region; - fashion, the effect of clothing on the individual (functionally and aesthetically); - folkloristics and the structure of fairy tales; - societies and social institutions (bygone and contemporary) with their distinctive features and identities; - charisma and charismatic personalities (past and present); - science and technology.
