Kolya and Others is a personal multilayered journey
through time, space, memory and childhood where “Others”
are material things of the past in a typical “dacha” (a country
house) outside Kiev.

Despite the seeming playfulness of the aesthetics of
the 70s, 80s and 90s, the presence of “Others” becomes
dramatically important, providing me with a powerful tool,
through which it becomes possible to photograph time.

By juxtaposing it with the young boy, a child of the XXI
century, I am reflecting on personal childhood memories and
the sense of otherness as well as playing with an imaginary
doll’s house.
