Even not about him, but his works Eyes sometimes can see some things that are very hard to describe to other people. They seems unable to fully understand and imagine what actually happened and what the soul felt that moment. At such minutes lack of a camera is an enormous misfortune or even worse. As a result, it is such a pity to think of a moment that was missed to be caught. However, the Vyatka River looks like it was made to be drawn and imagined, caught in all the ways and forms and black-and-white captures. As well as all the other cities that Alexey brings life photos from. At first glance, it seems like a photographer himself is a chance witness of routine life scenes that people watch every day. However, it is easier to see things rather than notice and understand them. Alexey Myakishev’s pieces of work help people to identify and understand “that moment”. Every photo tells its own tale. There is a dialog between a person and a photo that is being held between two of them. That is why, at the presentation of the Vyatka and Kolodozero picture series, laughter could be heard from the audience, but not every person was laughing, so the “conversation” was actually very close and special for every attendee. When a photo has been developed, Alexey stays only as a creator, or a third person party of what has been captured in a picture. His last movement is to slightly push a viewer in order to help the dialog between a person and an art to begin. What is more interesting, society truly believes in those stories. One will probably never meet this old man (A man and a raven series) who has saved and sheltered a raven. Strangers may be amazed by the thought that a wild bird has suddenly decided to live with a human, however, it gets more realistic while looking at them. People can even feel the pleasure that the man has experienced, because it is still debatable who actually helped the other or was helped by the other. Remember? Every conversation is quiet and unique for each person. web: www.myakishev.viewbook.com Kovtun D.
