Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the subsequent dismantling of Yugoslavia, French Slovenian photographer Klavdij Sluban turned his camera further eastward, to former Soviet states, along the Trans-Siberian railway, through Mongolia and onwards to China. The powerful black and white images are atmospheric, melancholy with a sense of isolation. £200.00
