Is there a future
In 2023, with big problems like climate crisis, wars, and social injustice, the German community project ZEGG offers a beacon of hope. With around 100 members, ZEGG aims to establish an exemplary society with sustainable living, leaderless structures, and freedom from societal stigmas, ranging from celibacy to polyamory.
Far from a clichéd image of hippies in treehouses, its members are educated individuals from diverse backgrounds, united by the belief in a life beyond consumerism.
Since 2022, I've been documenting this initiative and others like it worldwide, capturing the essence of community-driven, value-aligned living.
The project is not published yet, write me an email to see the full story

1 A.M.
Each relationship is different. So is sex or love. Being sensitive or wild, conservative or kinky, mono- or polygamous, romantic or vulgar, fruity or naughty.. almost everyone questioned themselves: If I like this or that, is it normal?
Raised in a post-soviet country, where the topic of sex was a taboo for a long time, I moved to Berlin and was exploring it’s new normality with the help of my camera, capturing people in their intimate moments in a project called “Whatever you like”.
“1 A.M.” series started as an attempt to continue the project in times of pandemic, when it’s almost impossible to make shootings offline. It’s a visual essay about human sexuality and sensuality. All the pictures were taken completely online, using webcam platforms, which reflects how sexual relationships are being more and more digitized every year.
The project has a form of a book and will be published by Fotografika publishing in the edition of 50 copies and was exhibited in Zeitgeist Zentrum in Berlin in 2023.

Whatever you like was a part of EMOP Berlin, exhibited in Projektraum Bethanien on 1-4 October 2020
The room was lightened up with 5 colourful strobe lights and accompanied by music, that created an atmosphere and also really interesting visual effects with the pictures.
Later on, in August 2021, it was a part of GAZE exhibitio in GlogaAIR Berlin (watch documentation video).

Dear Mom and Dad
A project devoted to those who have experienced difficult, abusive childhoods. It’s a metaphorical letter from adults to their parents, revealing all the things they were not able to say.
I interviewed 8 people, making a shooting and interview simultaniously. Portraits were taken while heroes were sharing
their stories and lived through the same emotions again. It was not an easy process, but it was worth it – you can see their honest feelings at the pictures.
