Egor Abramov (Russia)

Russian photographer Egor Abramov (Roge) was born and has grown in the city of St.-Petersburg, the cultural capital of the country. The passion for a photo has turned over his life and his name. So the pseudonym Roge appears (the turned name Egor). Studio portrait and studio theatrical photo are the field of Egor’s works. As he said the work with the person at studio was the most interesting for him. “I do not find for myself interesting to shoot lifeless objects or the nature, though I like photography of a forest and once I hope to make such works.” Roge often accompanies his photos not only with names but also with texts or poems. That is not typical for the photographer however he does not insist on this status. “They say that the photographer should not speak together with a photo and that his work must speak for itself. They say that the photographer stops the moment. Speak, that a photo, it is a print of time.
