Side Gallery presents work by acclaimed Azerbaijani photographer Rena Effendi.
About
The exhibition brings together works from three award-winning photographic series: Built on Grass (2014), Chernobyl: Still Life in the Zone (2010) and Khainaliq Village (2006).
The images document the back-breaking chores of farmers working the land in a traditional, almost mediaeval, fashion, in meadows and hills in Romania, Azerbaijan and Chernobyl.
Effendi’s work focuses on themes of environment, post-conflict society, the effects of oil industry on people and social disparity.
