STEPPING THROUGH MOSCOW
SOVIET PARADISE

Khiva, Uzbekistan, 1999
I was quite surprised that Central Asia up to and including this day had not been corrupted by Western Capitalism. These archeological dig sites were virtually unprotected and I decided to have my picture taken event hough I haven't the faintest idea of which period the relic in my hand dates from or who likely left it behind during some dramatic episode. MOST IMPORTANTLY, I have no idea what it would fetch in the market and suspect once people figure it out, there will bebarbed wire all over the place. After all, we only protect valuable objects, not ones with historical significance necessarily.
