Sometime ago I could write poems (in the Internet till now there is a forgotten site neskazannoe.boom.ru
and it is pleasant for me to think, that it still exists). Now when I should tell a couple of words about photography - I catch myself on idea, that there is nothing already to tell, and I have got used to express myself in photos so much, that I think in images and paints.
     I will tell only about one thing - a small explanation. I was told, that I should become an actress, but I wanted to become a regisseur. I wanted it so much - to make films, that I entered "Lenfilm"-studio at once at two courses – of cameramen and screen writers, - there was no course of regisseurs there, - certainly, I regretted, that I hadn’t entered the Cinematographic Institute in Moscow earlier. And when I have chosen photography as my favourite job instead of cinema, - each time when I do photos, I feel myself as a regisseur, and as I have understood for this time, that I could be a good model, I would like to play evething in my performance from the beginning to the end by myself, and it should have been made entirely by myself, and also by the music under which I have been making it, broadly speaking, I wanted to become a ballet dancer.

     I want to write a book. This night I have thought up the name for it, it will be named "Air after the rain". It will be a book with photos, but it will be similar to the literature, I don’t know else, in what genre it will be written, not in stories and poems, most likely, it will be something close to a novel. It will have a completely abstract subject, but it will have many similar with photos. I know, that this book can written only by myself, I made my first album about Russian saint places in such a way: there was neither the developed action in it, nor the story, but I wanted to get across an uniform idea, never, may be, having told about it concretely, actually one can tell: "Go to God" and tell: "There is a person weak and strong".       The most ridiculous is that one can write about something personal, that could be told only to the one person, but than better and sincere you will write about it, it becomes especially clear and organic for other people; the same is photography for me: the author should not think at all how to create something clear to everybody, all great works of art are created by the author for himself, for his beloved person.
