The intimate artist book by our friend and film director Sasha Kulak.

"My mother and I went on a trip together to get to know each other. We did not share any mutual interests or rituals of the type that would normally connect us as family. No traditions have ever existed between us — or have we forgotten them as well? So we made one up. My mother took pictures while I took pictures of my mother: this book is a portrait of her and the things that she took pictures of. The object turns into the subject. This essay involves three generations of women from one family tree. With my nephews we painted on these photographs."

“KAI” book weaves together a series of intimate, mostly black-and-white photos of Masha’s ex-boyfriend shot and produced during the 6-year relationship period (and after). Through intimate documentary images that reveal the symbolism of the everyday, the book becomes an exploration of the bind between the artist and her muse — both in terms of their respective age (9 years apart) and gender.

The book comprises photos shot on film and iPhone, video stills from a related installation and the author’s text in English and French. Some of the images were on display at Atelier Milleffeuilles (Nantes, France) in 2018.

The book “A Land With No Name” did not appear as the result of a single project about a journey or some life event. It is a book about internal geography, about the unique landscape formed inside each person and which we can consider our land. During life, it inevitably transforms, shifts, and this is just a desperate attempt to fix its visible part — forms that live only for a short moment and then are destroyed, no matter how strong they may seem to us.

The book contains photographs of the past 8 years of observation of the surrounding world and space, reflecting random moments long lost in memory.

Ilya worked on this project for more than 10 years, and Ilya and I worked on this book for two difficult years, thanks to the editor Daria Borisenko, and so the translator and English editor Trivis Turner, as well as our friend and partner Scanner Operator Artem Kudryashov. And to all our friends who helped with the release of this great work. About the “Morok” project: “Since childhood, when I’m sick, I see war in my dreams, and fragments of reality are woven into these dreams, full of anxiety and chaos. In those dreams, there are two recurring elements. First, my father and I defend a small plot of land, and our weapons stop working. Second, the familiar space transforms into an alien, scorched, mangled land covered with trash, all the traces of the past erased from its surface.

The project started the moment I saw forest rangers’ marks on trees in the forest where I grew up and with which I developed a special connection through my mother. The trees were to be cut, and I decided to capture the forest with my camera. 15 years later, almost nothing has remained of the forest. They started cutting it down to clear a power line. Later on, they kept doing it to fight the bark beetle. And then, the wind came and knocked down what had been thoughtlessly exposed by man.

“Morok” is an attempt to put together materials capturing places that are meaningful to me before they vanish.
