The images on this page represent a photodocumentary project that began in January of 1993. From 1993 to 1995, Eric Douglas traveled throughout Russia photographing the people as they struggled to find a new normal. In 2008, he returned to Russia to rephotograph many of the same people and places from his earlier trips.
In March of 2010, Eric exhibited this work at an international film festival in Moscow. This is the first time this body of work was shown in Russia. The exhibition was displayed at the West Virginia Culture Center on the state capitol grounds in Charleston, WV and at the Evenings of Russian Cinema Film Festival in Bordeaux France.
