Reality of Dreams
Olga Chagaoutdinova
The transition from one economic system to another continues to affect both the social and political landscape of Russia and Cuba. Olga Chagaoutdinova’s photographs capture these changes on an extremely intimate level, using the domestic setting as the site where these transitions are most acutely present. For this talk, Chagaoutdinova will discuss these social changes, the impact they have had on her work, and her ongoing research into cultural appropriation.
