I’VE DEVELOPED MY WAY OF PHOTOGRAPHING BY THINKING A LOT, SOMETIMES SELF-CRITICISM DESCENT TO THE POINT THAT I WANT TO DELETE ALL MY PHOTOS.
“ I WOULD DESCRIBE MY VISION AND AESTHETIC AS SHARDS OF ENDLESS SEARCHING OF A LIFE SENSE. “
THE FIRST IMAGES I SHOT THAT MADE ME DECIDE ON BECOMING A PHOTOGRAPHER WAS PHOTO SERIES ABOUT OPEN GOLD MINE CAPTURED BY SEBASTIAO SALGADO CALLED “ SERRA PELADA .“ THEN I REALIZED THAT CAN SPEAK TO ALL THE PEOPLE THE VISUAL LANGUAGE WHICH IS UNIVERSAL AND KNOWN FROM BIRTH.
“ SOMETIME I EXPRESS MYSELF WITH SKETCHES, BUT IT REMAINS ONLY TO BE PREPARED FOR EVERYTHING, PUT THE CAMERA RIGHT AND CLICK THE BUTTON. “
CLEARLY SPEAKING, THE LANGUAGE OF ART, HAVING VISUAL EXPERIENE WHICH WE CAN GET THROUGH ART STUDYING IS NEEDED. AFTER THEN IT’S NEEDED TO BE LEFT. ARTIST MUST BE LIVING VEHICLE OF TRUTH. OTHERWISE, IT WILL BE JUST A FORM COLLECTED FROM AN OLD KNOWLEDGE DURING THE PERIOD OF STUDYING ART. SOME KIND OF DEAD.
“ BEFORE A SHOOT, CONCEPTS ARE PREPARED AND TAKE A SHAPE OVER TIME. “
WHEN MY FRIEND AND I, STYLIST SASHA DUDCHENKO WERE ABOUT TO COMPLETE FURNISHING IN OUR NEW STUDIO. WE WERE LOOKING FOR NECESSARY MATERIALS IN SUPERMARKETS AND CAME UP WITH A LOT OF IDEAS FOR SHOOTING, INCLUDING CLOTHES THAT SASHA DESIGNED HIMSELF, THIS REALLY INSPIRED ME FOR THIS EDITORIAL.
“ EVERYTHING GOES BY, THIS TOO SHALL PASS. “
ONE FINE DAY I QUIT FROM OFFICE WORK AND I WAS FEW STEPS FROM BECOMING HOMELESS. IN THAT POINT I ASKED MYSELF, WHAT DO I REALLY WANT TO DO? I STARTED PHOTOGRAPHY BEFORE THAT, IT WAS JUST A HOBBY.
