PHOTOGRAPHY ELENA SOKOLOVA
Photographer Elena Sokolova shares with us how she managed to keep entertained whilst locking down alone in her hometown of Moscow, Russia. The results? A series of ironical self-portraits that don’t take themselves too seriously. A lifestyle photographer along with fashion, Sokolova couldn’t help but add some still-life photography in for good measure with the jeweled rotten banana being an F Word (not so firm) favourite.
