That is seriously unsettling and powerful photography.
Thank you for the links.
Thank you for the links.
Really? I dont find any unsettling. Imaginative I think, slight dark humor maybe, who knows how the Russians think. Interesting use of double exposure and movement.

I find the images quite eerie - as if they are photos of ghosts.
I follow him on Flickr. As we say in Russian, we don't know what he drinks...
The stuff of nightmares.....
Cool stuff! I wish I were half that creative.

Reminds me of Eugene Meatyard's work.
Wow! I dont think I have seen his work before, fantastic pictures, thanks.

I've always been a fan his his stuff. Nice to see someone contemporary following the same vein.
Powerful stuff. It really works. Unusually literate for a photographer.

This series of the presented photos is called "Dream". It was created after reading the eleventh lecture, "Dream Work", from Sigmund Freud's book A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis in which he says that "thanks to overlaying against each other separate condensed units there is, as a rule, not clear, indistinct picture, like that which turns out if on one photographic plate to make some pictures".
With this series, I hope to transfer the feeling of fragility and unreliability surrounding us in dream of the world.
This series was realized on a Holga camera, which allowed the making of repeated and imposing photographs. The chamber moved after each pressing the trigger button that the effect of trembling, alarm and uncertainty was gained."

Returning to your comment, above: While it appears that Varaksin finds children and inconsequential buildings easy sources of emotionally loaded imagery, he occasionally ventures away from those safety nets...
