Russian photographer Sergey Larenkov has found a relatively innovative way to conflate the very disparate yet surprisingly congruous past and present together. He endows us with the ability to see the historical and social progression of previously, if not still, parochial and communist societies as they morph into urbanized and progressive modern cities. The span of 60 plus years (World War II era to the present) is encapsulated within a minute pictorial frame. And although the advent of photoshop and its utilization among amateur photographers has been prevalent for some time now, Sergey seems to employ different stylistic techniques that assist him in conveying his artistic and life philosophies. A pastiche of the then burgeoning industrialization, the nascent stages of World War hysteria, and the enduring chaos and complexity of a modern world buttressed by modern innovations.
