东欧空难

Air Crash in
Eastern European


"Air Crash in Eastern Europe" comes from a constructive fantasy. The focus is not on specific objects such as birds, factories, streets, and means of transportation, but emphasizes a literary imagery between poetry and novels.

The work was shot in the winter of 2017. The author has just stepped out of the trough of his life and traveled along the Baltic Sea at the invitation of his friends (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Sweden). The tradition of taking Aeroflot is to applaud and celebrate safety when the plane arrives at the airport. However, at the security check in Moscow, a bag full of film was forcibly thrown into the X-ray machine due to unsuccessful communication with the Russian staff. Therefore, "air crash" does not refer to personal experiences, but to works.

The author uses high-contrast film to shoot scenes with low-density light in winter, which adds thickness to the off-white images, and creates an atmosphere through rough tones filled with large areas of dark gray. The combination of images presents a poetic jump Sex, and the X-ray scan also strengthened the gloomy and melancholy atmosphere of Central and Eastern Europe in the picture.

In a region with the highest suicide rate in Europe, there is always sadness in the camera. The god overlooks the earth mistyly, and the people circle and disperse like a flock of birds.
