Set for release in February 2017, we love the teaser trailer for Zaschitniki (Guardians), an upcoming Russian superhero film directed by Sarik Andreasyan, that follows a motley group of Soviet superheroes who fight villainous foes in the USSR during the cold war. Da da da! 🙂
We love Russian designer Rus Khasanov‘s latest project ‘Sweet Dreams’ which is footage of a slow moving combination of ink, glitter, oil, and soap creating dreamlike patterns of brilliant colour. This Monday mood is further enhanced by the addition of a soothing track by Dmitry Evgrafov – perfect thing to kick off the week, enjoy! 🙂
Sergey Kolesov: We love the illustrations of Russian artist Sergey Kolesov, who creates a dark and fascinating world caught between fantasy and science fiction, populated by unique characters, gigantic monsters, and futuristic machines. A very powerful and particular style, Sergey Kolesov’s work is reinforced by a flawless technique and a clever use of light. Awesome stuff! 🙂
Ivan Alifan: We love these large format oil paintings created by Russian artist Ivan Alifan, who uses visual ambiguity to generate curiosity, intrigue and slight disgust in his series It’s Not Milk. Through these dripping and oozing portraits, Ivan Alifan explores ideas of sexuality and eroticism with an unsettling modern gaze. Fantastic stuff!
