Trace of an artist

Photography 2017

Photography as a trace. In this work it is a trace in the truest sense of this word. Yury Nikiforov, an artist and a friend of mine, died of cancer. During his illness, he spent a lot of time in a bed, at the head of which a trace of his body appeared. I photographed this trace of him on the wall and installed it on the gallery, also pasting it on the wall. Artists leave many traces, but the trace of life itself is unique.
