In Chinese philosophy, the concept of yin yang is used to describe how polar or seemingly contrary forces are interconnected and interdependent in the natural world, and how they give rise to each other in turn.
Yin yang are complementary opposites within a greater whole. Everything has both yin and yang aspects, although yin or yang elements may manifest more strongly in different objects or at different times.
According to this idea, every being, object or thought possesses a complement on which it depends for his existence and which in turn exists inside him itself.
In order to reflect the theory of yin yang, I have created this project. The contrasts of this axiom that represent everything in the world appear with incredible force in the nature, and the reflection of it appears in my work. The serenity and tranquillity of the beauty that comes from the land, and his opposite one, the savagery and ferocity of the fauna. It is a necessary disagreement, a harmonic conflict that is kept for the hand of the man.
The yin and the yang form a dynamic balance: when it increases one, other one diminishes. Paradoxically the maintenance of this scale is in the hands of the major predator of the land.
The human being is emphasizing this process, it is forced to re-balance his own imbalances.
In my works I am shooting young and dynamic people who are destined to understand and to use the new moral values in aim of the protection of our Mother Earth.Photography2011 -
The language of the fan in the 18th century was a very popular thing among a high society, both in Spain and Russia. Women had a special language to speak with their lovers. Everything depended on the gesture and position of the fan. In Russia there were classes of that language at schools for girls.
Nowadays, the fan becomes more and more popular as a fashion complement. And usually we can see more young people using fans, without knowing the meaning of their gestures.
But it is not my aim to remember and to return the language of the fan, to make only a small promenade in its history of passion and secrets. I really hope to inspire someone to create his own language of gestures to speak in secret with his love.Photography2011 -

"The snow storm from the north howled and howled, and now they themselves could sense a dull, subterranean rumbling, the groaning of an anguished land in travail."
