’Soviet Seasons’

’Soviet Seasons’
Soviet Seasons is the follow-up volume to Arseniy Kotov's debut Soviet Cities, which was successfully funded on Kickstarter. 
In Soviet Seasons Kotov's photographs reveal unfamiliar aspects of the post-Soviet terrain. From snow-blanketed Siberia in winter, to the mountains of the Caucasus in summer, these images show how a once powerful, utopian landscape has been effected by the weight of nature itself.  
This uniquely broad perspective could only be achieved by a photographer such as Kotov. Singularly dedicated to exploring every corner of his country, Kotov often hitch-hikes across vast distances. On these journeys he chronicles not only the architectural achievements of the Soviet empire, but also its overlooked or simply undocumented constructions.
