The photographer with a special gift You won’t see a lot of people’s faces in Nadezhda Pavluchkova’s photos. You won’t see wonderful sights of the city, beautiful streets and buildings, nice parks and lovely flats and rooms. She prefers to take pictures of the places and things, very often deserted and ruined, old and broken, which still keep the memories of the events that took place many years ago. Doing it she creates new, very often quite unexpected images of very familiar things. She uses all her extraordinary creative power to make places, and things in her photos tell us more about the life, characters and habits, likes and dislikes of their owners, something that is hidden and sometimes can’t be seen at first. Nadezhda Pavluchkova has got such an amazing gift to find all this in very ordinary things, and she generously shares it with us. ‘The two engaging powers of a photograph are to make new things familiar and familiar things new.’ William Thackeray
