Exploring remnants of the Soviet era, the photographs in Soviet Ghosts reveal abandoned and decaying structures that stand as silent witnesses to a vanished world. The visual approach emphasizes stark, haunting imagery that captures the eerie atmosphere of deserted locations.
The book documents the material traces of history, architecture, and ideology left behind, creating a mood that oscillates between nostalgic reflection and unsettling emptiness. These images offer a profound meditation on memory and the passage of time within post-Soviet spaces.
Published by Gingko Press Editions in 2014, this 192-page volume foregrounds the spectral qualities of spaces shaped by a complex political past without resorting to overt narrative explanations.
