My name is Yana Zerkalova.

present . In the 1991, after war in Abkhazia i moved to Greece and then to Ukraine, now I live in Ukraine. I am Russian and I speak russian and english. I present myself as an independent international photo-artist.
My art-photo is my only sight of the world.
I have experience as an architect, interior designer , furniture designer, clothes designer, designer of small architectural forms, stylist and visagiste. I studied architecture in the Architectural Institute and I worked as designer for five years in different design studios in Odessa. Five years ago I have left the architecture and design career and got engaged in a photography. The photography enables me to feel internal creative freedom.

"From Odessa to Paris with photos of Abkhazia"

Young Odessa photographer Yana Zerkalova has been to Paris and has taken part in the project of the fourth session of the “École Sauvage” school. Organizer of the art evening, composer Mr. Kamil Tchalaev, is in blood relationship with Odessa: his grandfather Yakov Kaplun and grandmother Fima Lebedinskaya studied in Odessa Musical Dramatic Institute. And now, after many years (this year Yakov Kaplun would have turned one hundred years), Kamil visited the land of his ancestors. Here he got acquainted with Yana Zerkalova, both as a photographer and the one studying the philosophy of dance. Her pictures made in destroyed Abkhazia, in former grandmother’s house, where Yana came back after the seventeen years long separation from her “small homeland”, impressed composer Mr. Kamil Chalaev and his wife choreographer Mrs. Sabina greatly. And they invited Yana to Paris to take part in their project where photo goes hand in hand with music, and dance is combined with painting. The “Black series” exhibition by Yana Zerkalova was held in the Paris Seventh Arrondissement Association House. The attempt was the successful. And now New Independent Academy (the head of which is Nina Rausch de Traubenberg) looks for a chance to invite Yana Zerkalova to a year study course in Paris. Photos made by Yana in Paris in 2007 will be exposed in May in “Clarabara” restaurant (The City Garden).

Zerkalova est née
dans une famille des
photographes à
Soukhoumi, capitale de
la République Autonome
Abkhase, près de la
Géorgie, sur la mer
Noire. En 1991 elle suit
sa mère, fuyant la
guerre séparatiste, et
s’installe d’abord en
Grèce, ensuite à Odessa
où elle vit actuellement.
Diplômée de l’Institut
d’Architecture, la jeune
spécialiste refuse à jouer
le jeu politico financier
qu’offre le pouvoir local
pour la carrière dans le
BTP. Elle abandonne et
commence à chercher sa
voie dans la photographie.
La série présentée est née
du retour de Yana sur le
sol Abkhase après 17 ans
d’absence. Elle y retrouve
une ville meurtrie, les gens
errant, fous, pervers, des
maladies, des ruines du
ministère de la Culture,
autrefois la fierté du peuple
abkhase... Aidée de son
frère resté sur place, lui
malade de tuberculose, elle
revoit ainsi la maison de sa
grand-mère...
à mon frère Yanik Martynov
Toutes ces photos de Yana
Zerkalova (40x50 cm) ont
été exposées le 31 janvier
2007 à Paris à la Maison
des Associations du 7ème
arrondissement sur l’invitation
de l’Ecole Sauvage
NALI dans le cadre de
l’Assemblée Générale
annuelle.
Avec le soutien de
Sovtransavto.
Remerciements à Rouben
Ashrafian, Ollivier Morane, à
l’équipe de la Maison des
Associations du 7ème, à

"Из Одессы в Париж с фотоснимками Абхазии"

Молодая одесская фотохудожница Яна Зерка
лова побывала в Париже, приняла участие
в проекте четвертой сессии школы "Эколь Со
важ". Организатор вечера искусств композитор
Камиль Чалаев связан с Одессой кровно — его
дед Яков Каплун и бабушка Фима Лебединская
учились в Одесском муздрамине. И вот спустя
много лет (в этом году Якову Каплуну исполни
лось бы сто лет) Камиль побывал на родине
предков. Здесь он познакомился с Яной Зерка
ловой — и как с фотохудожницей, и как ученицей
по философии танца. Ее снимки, сделанные
в разрушенной Абхазии, в бывшем бабушкином
доме, куда Яна вернулась после 17 лет разлуки
со своей "малой родиной", произвели на компо
зитора Камиля Чалаева и его жену хореографа
Сабину сильное впечатление. И они пригласили
Яну в Париж для участия в их проекте, где фото
соседствовало с музыкой, танец — с живописью.
Показ "Черной серии" Яны Зеркаловой про
шел в Доме ассоциации 7%го округа Парижа.
Опыт был воспринят как удача. И теперь Новая
свободная академия (президент Нина Констан
тиновна Рауш фон Траубенберг) ищет возмож
ности для приглашения фотохудожницы Яны
Зеркаловой на годичную стажировку в Париж.
Снимки, которые Яна Зеркалова сделала
в Париже в 2007 году, в мае будут экспониро
ваться в ресторане "Кларабара" (Городской сад).
