Decadence.
“This series titled Decadence is the sublimation of thoughts, feelings and emotions that torment my body, brain, heart and soul,” says photographer Natalia Samoilova. Right before the global narrative turned to racism and the systemic oppression Black people have endured throughout history, all the news were about the Covid-19 pandemic, which is still growing despite some countries are slowly coming out of quarantine. Reflecting on the current situation of our world, the Belarusian photographer created this artistic series to hold a mirror up to society as well as to exorcise those bad feelings, thoughts and sensations she was feeling.
