Drowned

PORTFOLIO winners   CALL URBANAUTICA INSTITUTE AWARDS 2021
For the "Drowned" project I traveled through the countries of the former socialist bloc in search of the architecture of Soviet modernism filming it with my camera. The resulting photographs were printed and rolled onto a rigid base after which the architecture depicted in the photographs was cut out in separate fragments which I installed on the shoals of the Aral Sea. The architecture of Soviet modernism was an image of the communist future. Over time political utopias collapsed leaving behind the architecture of a failed future.
