“The Moscow-born photographer Elena Kholkina, contributed to a variety of magazines like Ozon Raw, ACHE, Open Lab and Kinki. She is closely collaborating with fashion designers and is currently working on projects with Alexandra Grecco, Dreamandawake and Dell Stewart. Her recent dreamlike photography series, populated by illusive and beautiful characters, pulsate with ambiguous meditations on a profound spiritual level. Elena’s photography manages to evoke the sense of faux naïve intimacy within the confines of hauntingly atmospheric scenarios” – Dazed & Confused
