Analogue photografie, in collaboration with Asya Freyaa. Exhibition „Everybody´s a bit worried „Special project of the IV Moscow International Bienalle for young art Moscow, Russia We live at distance of one thousand kilometers from each other- Berlin and Yekaterinburg (the city in Russia). In our this project we tried make a reflection about the condition of “between”. “Between” is a space without borders. A strange emptiness which can’t be defined, understood or grasped in any way. We started from the impossibility of understanding the intimate dynamics and connections existing between people – when they are not together – when they have no possibility to touch themselves, to stay in the same room, to see the same things and when they can’t share a personal and common space of living words. Moreover we were looking to what exists between them –we undergo the conditions of distance, time difference, melancholy. We used photos as mean of search: mean of fixing this imperceptible condition, mean of communication, mean of unification.

Photos have been made using the multiexposition technique. We sent the films each other and we used the same film to photograph us.
