The Bones of Leninism



Uryevich is a talented Russian man who travels around his homeland, photographing the rotting industrial remains of the defunct Soviet state. Click the pic to see many more such photos.

I don't exactly know why, but there's something hypnotizing about old, abandoned commercial and industrial structures. They're somehow very melancholy, fairly oozing small, lost pieces of individual human stories...

Or maybe I'm just weird. That's always a good go-to explanation where I'm concerned.

Lenin had a dream of utopia. It was utopia for him and dictatorship for everyone under him. Good photography.
