A photographic insight into the Soviet-era architecture of one of the most extreme, little known and vast territories on earth. From the Ural mountains to the Arctic circle, the work features the extensive microrayons of Siberia's urban centres, the brutal landscapes of industrial monotowns, cosmic circuses, concrete theatres and opera houses, as well as prefabricated panel blocks erected on permafrost, capturing the stark splendour of post-war modernist building.
