Photography
I photograph people, streets, children, insects, mountains and social projects in Kyrgyzstan. Photography is the part of my practice that stays closest to the ground: it does not interpret a person, it records that they were there.
2014–2018 · Documentary
Several years of documentary work in children's homes and homes for older people across Kyrgyzstan — Bishkek, Belovodskoye, Tokmok, Osh. The photographs were published as they were made; they brought new volunteers and the group grew.

Ongoing
A long-term project on social invisibility: people on the street, older people, those a society has learned to walk past. The work refuses to draw conclusions about its subjects. A person asleep on a bench is not necessarily homeless — behind a visible situation there is usually another story. Being built over several years; not yet shown.
