Exhibition "Summer is leaving in the dew drops ..."

The exhibition “Summer is leaving in the dew drops…”, which will open on March 2 at the Gallery sports art club, presents the exposition of the photographer Galina Yunyaeva, collected from 30 of her works from different years. The author’s favorite genre is the Russian landscape, where special attention is paid to macro photography. Yunyaeva notes: “I like to shoot not just enlarged insects, but to photograph them in a state of action and dialogue with the rest of the environment, with dew drops, with grass. I’m interested in the story, the sketch. Yes, I make small sketches about the very inconspicuous inhabitants of our world. It’s worth buying a “macro” to take a different look at our familiar Russian nature. ”

Galina picked up the camera while still a schoolgirl, but she discovered the real craving for this type of art when she was in Valdai, where her family bought a house. “When I saw this beauty, it was simply impossible not to remove it. I wanted to show it to all my friends. But over time, I became more and more fascinated by macro photography. ”

The author says that she gets up to her “silent hunt” early in the morning, at four o’clock, and ends already at nine, when the harsh light interferes with her creative ideas, her special “soft style”. Then the second stage of the photographer’s work comes - art processing. A distinctive feature of the photo artist’s work is her very recognizable processing style: there are no sudden transitions, everything is very smooth and as if “enchanted”. The viewer plunges into a state of summer dawn, very early in the morning, when the sun is only just beginning to illuminate everything around. Yunyaeva smiles: “I don’t even know what I like more: to photograph in the summer or retouch, to process the footage in the winter. Perhaps that is why my "Valdai Saga" is uninterrupted… "
