Made to last forever...


A HOUSING, Chelyabinsk, Russia. This ... lighting fixture was shot in a housing of a so called Khruschev series. Back in sixties Nikita Khruschev had introduced small appartment housings to solve the accomodation shortage. They say he had borrowed the idea from Finland but taken saunas away. Actually, there were showers in kitchens in some of the housings like that.
I was caught shooting by a dweller. When he got to know what I had been doing, he had commented that this... chandelier would last forever though it might look queer.
