Bio:

Yuri Syuganov was born in Russia. During his university years in the mid-1980s he started practicing street photography in and around Moscow, Russia. Back then Yuri was using a LOMO lc-a camera and exhibiting images taken with this camera long before the word “lomography” was invented.

Yuri came to the U.S. in 2000 and lived for 17 years in the San Francisco Bay Area where he has exhibited few personal shows at coffee shops in and around San Francisco. Since 2019 he lived in Washington, D.C. and then Memphis, TN. He moved to Miami Beach, FL in 2023. He participated in the International Photography Festival in Arles, France, and in group shows in San Francisco, New York and Milan.

Artist's statement:

Pointing is one of my series studying un-posed gestures and poses happening in real life all the time in front of our eyes, which we usually don't pay any attention to. I find it fascinating to show it as a body or work anticipating that next time you see that gesture, you'll smile and mentally release the shutter.
