Egor Rogalev

Egor Rogalev is prolific in documenting urban post-Soviet landscapes and has an eye for grandiose and bizarre modernist buildings. In Synchronicity he combines Soviet architecture and cityscapes with portraits of the generation born after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Shot mainly in Kiev, Rogalev asked his protagonists to express their relationship to the city in poses and gestures in an attempt to capture what it’s like to be an adolescent at a time when Ukraine is undergoing the difficult process of decommunisation.
