The creative duo EVSUVDO
photography

February 27 - March 15, 2012

EvsuVdo - creative pseudonym of young photographers Toma Evsukova and Sasha Vdovkin living and working in Chelyabinsk.

Artworks of exhibition EvsuVdo are incorporated by idea of finding of a new reality. Reality, in which the person will not be "broken out" from the actuality where he does not need to fight and bleed profusely. EvsuVdo shows to viewers the world built harmoniously, the world as the whole, as a new universe whose integral part is the person.

At the same time the photographers speak with the audience by simple human language. Object of photographing becomes reality well familiar to the authors - the close people, recognized places. Fixing the brief moments of harmony between man and space, EvsuVdo repeatedly receive tangible evidence of its existence. It does not really matter whether the result is obtained from conscious experiment, or is fixed by casual way. The more the evidences are received the more likely, putting them together, one can harmonize the world as a whole.

Demiurgic nature of creativity is a distinctive feature of works by EvsuVdo that pseudonym has been originated through the synthesis of surnames of its participants. The art method of the duo includes high emotionality and subtle lyrics of images.

As a result, the reality created by EvsuVdo takes the audience from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in the world filled with real beauty.
