Since 2003, Asya Dodina and Slava Polishchuk have collaborated to address profound tensions and dualities defiing contemporary society. As descendants of Jewish ancestors who experienced anti-Semitic pogroms in Russia, Dodina and Polishchuk are acutely aware of the dangers posed by state surveillance. Their work operates through juxtapositions, exploring such themes as destruction and hopefulness, isolation and connection, and memory and the loss of self. This piece is from the What Remains series.
