Lost in time: the photographer found museums in Moscow that no one needs for a long time

Lily Idova was born in Moscow, but currently lives and works in sleepless New York. Her name can be found in the column "Author" of many vivid shootings for Vogue and GQ. However, her own projects are even more interesting. For example, a series of photographs called "Relics", for which Idova took several dozen photographs in the most unknown museums in Moscow.

In this project, she explores the curious phenomenon of how any object behind glass, whether it is a mannequin, stone, or a scarecrow, becomes a work of art and is awarded a place on display. It is also interesting that most of the museums in which Lily rented were founded back in the 1800s, and today they are like structures frozen in time that do not change at all, despite all the metamorphoses that have occurred with our country.
