Yesterday's Sandwich II
Hardcover | Edition of 1000 | 104 pages
Published by Super Labo, 2019.
Yesterday's Sandwich II is the continuation of Mikhailov’s 2007 title by the same name, which contains 90 never before-seen superimposed images.
In the late 1960s to early 70s, Boris Mikhailov of the former Soviet Union, discovered a new method of image making, in which he would overlap two colour slides, creating these "sandwich images. The photographs in the book present strange scenes of everyday Soviet life. Mikhailov states that the work served as a metaphor for the worldview of the soviet man, who began to realize the duality of soviet life and the beginning of its democratization.
