"God, gears and gun jewellery: Route 1 revisited – in pictures"

"#AnastasiaSamoylova took a photographic journey up the US east coast – and found herself in America’s unreconciled past just as much as its fragmented present"

David Campany, the editor of Adaptation, describes Samoylova’s work as ‘provocative’ but if this is right the provocation is not of the kind that her mother country christened agitprop. On the contrary, any incitement lies in their jouissance, in the Lacanian, libidinal sense of an affective intensity and its peculiar propensity to engender enjoyment out of failure and displeasure. Samoylova’s bravura lies in giving visual expression to the socio-transcendental ascendency of finding satisfaction in appearance against the background of nothing.
