With this project, I document the life of my family. I want to make such pictures, which help in future to my children remember their childhood, what they were and how they spent their time. This is a kind of “diary of time” that is limited to the space of our dwelling. The limited space of our apartment becomes a new challenge for me as a photographer. It would seem like: what you can shot in such a routine condition? But the apartment itself becomes a kind of decorations for all the photos of this series. Of course, Kids spend much of their time at home, and I have to watch and record all the things that, in my opinion, will be exciting and interesting for them.
