Young award-winning photographer from Saint-Petersburg Nikita Pirogov currently exhibits in Denmark with his latest series "The Other Shore".
For me photography is an exploration of tangible things, which I take from their place in nature and make into images with their own associations, just as functional speech lies adjacent to lyrical music in the palette of sound. This process is a manifestation of all the factors of practical experience that affect our perception: climate, race, temperament, education, and many others. This process is aided by structure and composition, as well as by formal elements rooted in our biological experience.

This film emphasizes our Russian national origin. It is a visualisation of cacophony performed on an original Russian instrument – button accordion (bayan) which is commonly associated with traditional Russian way to relax and entertain. The film is a confluence of two contradicting things: rag-wooden Russian folklore and modern plastic computer graphics.

TOSAY.IT is a continuation and a large update of our past projects with public text posters once created by Dopludo Collective from StPete, Russia. The main idea of the project is to explore text, streets & internet as an artistic medium, to broadcast actual ideas that are usually ignored by mass media, or to comment on the issues that seem important to put up by the author of the text. In november 2010 TOSAY.IT was exposed in Moscow's activistic art gallery at Vinzavod. In upcoming August it is going to be represented in public space in the center of Amsterdam.
