SILK ROAD
The photographs were taken in the spring of 2023 during the tour of the punk band Pospish Potom through the cities of Russia, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. In my work I tried to go beyond immersion in the subculture, abandoned the linear narrative and tried to present the punk journey as a sign system, where the personal becomes collective, the borders exist only in the form of walls of small clubs and the road stretches infinitely.
“Silk Road” series was presented at the exhibition “They were irresistibly sleepy” at the Stella Art Foundation gallery. The series consists of two parts — silver-gelatin prints and an installation with a looped analog slideshow.
Curated by Sergey Balandin and Aleksey Korsi.
