for over ten years now, leonid tishkov has traveled the world with his moon. as he explains, “the moon is a shining point that brings people together from different countries, of different nationalities and cultures - and everyone who gets in its orbit does not forget it ever.” 

“it gives fairytale and poetry in our prosy and mercantile world. the moon helps us to overcome our loneliness in the universe by uniting us around it,” he adds.

“the ancient ural peoples who lived in my home told a fairy tale about how a shaman goes into the next world, illuminating the path of the moon. so in all of my photos, i can be seen in my late father’s cloak, because he travels with me in this way.”
