The Key to the Peace , 2000's
10 x 15 cm (h x w)
Photo paper

Valentin is a legendary photobrut artist and a kind of symbol of St. Petersburg. Despite the turbulent youth and performative street life of the photographer many years ago, Valentin has been leading a hermitic lifestyle for a long time. He often visits churches and prays for human purity and peace.

He is known in all parishes. However, this did not deprive him of almost youthful enthusiasm and a penchant for tricks and jokes.
