"Riot"
When you do not have a chance to be heard by society it doesn't mean that you will stay calm to the situation. This work is about boiling point, when you can not stop your own riot inside.

Biography: I was born in Calcutta, India, on May 9, 1982 and am now based in Moscow working with my wife Veronica. I commenced photography in 2008 as a commercial studio photographer. My experiments with beauty portraits and art resulted in the acclaimed series Weird Beauty and 2D or not 2D made in 2012 and 2013. The art-photography I create is always based on people's transformation. In most of my works the human identity takes the back seat and the models are used as a canvas for well-known shapes to trick your eyes. Each project is a huge team work, a great game with words, imagination and illusions.
