ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This is one of a series of works of the project "Incognito" designed to show what really personalizes us. The idea of ​​the project was made when I traveled to Morocco. There for the first time I saw people in a turban, a headdress of an unusually beautiful color - indigo. Only Tuareg tribes wore such an unusual shawl color. Later I began to study the habits of these tribes, the structure of their lives. It seemed to me interesting to demand to close the face to men, women are given more opportunity to organize their lives. I pondered over this and realized that the traditional values ​​of European countries taboo completely different aspects of man. No body personalizes a person, a person can identify us. I conducted an experiment, showed photos of the participants of the project to their close people and no one could identify the heroine. During the project, the therapeutic component of the process was revealed, modern girls find it difficult to accept their body. They can not be unchained, under the pressure of public opinion over the canons of beauty. They can not remove their mind from the body when the situation is not erotic. This is a strong pressure on women, I'm sorry this, I would like to draw attention to this. To implement this project, the technology of the old printing method, based on humic arabic, was chosen. The photosensitive layer is applied by a brush and therefore each imprint is unique.

Hi! I am a photographer and videographer. I'm a member of the National Photographic Association. I shoot art works mainly on film cameras. Pay attention to the Tagelmus project, it is really a creative project shot for an idea. People's rejection of their own bodies amuses me. Quite the opposite opinion among the Berber tribes, where they cover the face, as it is a strong identification in contrast to the sexual characteristics. I also love retro cars and cars, and I find inspiration in their lines.
