The photo book by Leningrad photographer Boris Kudryakov is a personal archive where photographs, drawings, and handwritten replicas collide on cardboard sheets. The viewer is awaited by a space of dissonances, where familiar stories crumble into fragments of memories and voices. On large-format sheets, photographs by Boris Kudryakov from different years, marker drawings, prose fragments, and hasty handwritten comments are collected. Some sheets resemble a wall newspaper, while others resemble a diary, where alongside everyday scenes, strange replicas and fragments of thoughts emerge. The materials argue and interrupt each other, breaking the expectation of a cohesive narrative. Instead of a smooth chronology, the viewer encounters torn episodes that refuse to coalesce into a neat story of the past. From this discord grows a sense of the author's presence, engaging in conversation both with himself and with an invisible interlocutor. The creator of the photo book belongs to the generation that laid the foundation for post-Stalin independent photography in Leningrad. He was interested in anxiety, absurdity, and the fractured space of the city, while the window-dressing beauty remained off-camera. We know what to see in Saint Petersburg.
