Women and Time
This series follows women across different environments and moments in time. Photographed over two decades, from the late Soviet period into the post-Soviet years, the work brings together scenes of labor, movement, waiting, and stillness. These are not staged narratives, but fragments of lived reality. The images show women in fields, factories, streets, institutions, and private spaces — carrying both the structure of the past and the pressure of the present. Rather than telling a linear story, the series reveals a continuous condition: the persistence of effort, resilience, and presence over time. Series of 30 photographs
