Aleksei Morozov

a frozen settlement in Yakutsk, Siberia

For 30 years, Aleksei has braved the frigid Siberian tundra, working tirelessly on the oil rigs and ensuring the safety and reliability of his team while wrestling with the harsh elements. His world is filled with small certainties: his dependable truck, the warmth of a relentless wood stove, and the familiar bark of each neighborhood dog he knows by name. Drawn to details others might overlook, he finds himself captivated by the subtle language of hands, reflecting on the lies they tell and what they reveal about wear, age, and anxiety.
