Moscow Myths

In my “MOSCOW MYTHS“ project, I have found a way of photographing and reinterpreting the past as the present. While subsequently returning to visit Moscow between 2004 and 2009, I have been keen to explore the current obsession with everything Russian: decomposing remains of the Soviet Union, Kremlin stars, fur hats and Rodchenko posters.

Shot on film using the double exposure technique with a variety of cameras, from the Canon Ae-1 to the Lomo Kompakt Automat the images are also cross processed to give vibrant and highly saturated colours.
