In all my works i try to show ” another “side of reality.i try to open elusive, mystery of people, things, spaces.i make invisible visible. sometimes its a dark sides, sometimes white,but it always contrast of that lies on a surface.
some words about technical moments of my works:
i I have no single stile . I don’t like a glamour and glossy in art. I take my pictures with many kind of cameras, from handy to ancient cameras . As I started with films, i still have more satisfaction from black-and-white chemical process. I often use outdated materials: paper, film , chemicals. I like to make any size pictures despite of that modern photography tend to big size pictures.
This series of images was made by ancient camera Brownie №2 made by kodak 100 years ago, which i bought in London on Portobello for 10 pounds. It is a black box with hole instead of objective. The greatest plus of this camera it’s that the result of photo session is always a big surprise. And i think,that it’s an ancient technique and new way they address the contemporary world.
