BIASED REALITY
Six years ago, I bought my first smartphone with a built-in camera. Since then, photography has become my daily practice. My gaze is drawn to strange objects, bright clothing and captures scenes with ambiguous narratives. As I began to explore my archive of 50,000 images, I came to the conclusion that provincial Russia cultivates images from the '90s and the further we are from the center, the more traces of the past we observe.
The series “Biased Reality” essentially represents a journey on public transport from the center to a distant part of the city, followed by a walk through the surroundings, where the viewer is presented with images that often elude the untrained eye.

For the first time the series was presented at the group exhibition “Pocket Avant-Garde”. The exposition was placed in the trunk of a vintage LADA 2105 trimmed with gold velvet. Visitors could look at the works by shining a flashlight on them.
