from "Guest-Worker project" __________________________________ this project is about painful matter of eastern expansion in Europe. it is dedicated to millions of immigrants from the countries of asia, the people who are moving for a better life to a new territory. those who are used to wearing hijabs and observe namaz from the very early childhood. this project is about cross-cultural communication, different people living under the same sun, it is about a very complicated process of transfusion of various traditions, human types and cultures. some centuries ago my ancestors came to europe from palestine just the same way. they were not welcome, they were rejected, suffered from bashing, synagogues were prohibited. and finally, a significant part of our nation was killed in gas chambers of concentration camps. that is why i do not have a pre-judging view at new immigrants. for the role of new-comers and migrant workers i chose the representatives of moscow bohemia - film critics, artists, musicians - descendants of those representatives of other nations and cultures who once came to russia. fastfood decorations and accessories are not more than a frame, a context pointing to the time and place. my rules of the game are set now, so it's up to the viewer to make his of her own conclusions.

"I've never been interested in photography as in mere light reflection. I do almost never use photoshop. It's really interesting for me not only to expose the reality existing but to create, to construct my own version of it, to find protagonists. This process resembles theater, with costumes and scenery. Photography gives only a simplicity of exposure. My works are mostly dedicated to globalization, up-to-date world processes, to conflicts aroused on the edge of historical traditions and new values of post industrial society. Shall we show the featureless office life or complicated perception of emigrants, we show always a person, a human being as a center: his portrait, his feelings, his sense of the world. As to the form, I work a lot with fast food, with modern colorful packings of products, cans of cola, French fries packs.. This is sure both a heritage of pop art that is close to me since my childhood, and 'brandmania' that is the tons of beautifully packed trash, due to the commercial demand, congesting our world. We are sinking in it. I guess this material is still topical, though I feel the need to deal with something more solid and everlasting."
