Mitsuru Nishimura / Moscow

A zine of people gathering at a clubhouse in Moscow.

The first place is a GRIND CORE live house that Sasha from "sputnik 1985" invited me to.
It was really scary to see Russian giants moshing while bleeding from their heads. was a lot of fun!
In September, the daytime temperature in Moscow is only about 5 degrees Celsius, and I thought that the townspeople would be quiet, but it seems that young people are bursting with emotions in such an underground place.

The second place is NII, a club produced by designer Gosha Rubchinski.
During my stay, I went to NII several times, and I became friends with the staff, Alexandra, who introduced me to Gosha, who was coming that night. Furthermore, I am deeply moved by introducing BUT TECHNO.

When I visited Moscow in the fall of 2017, I became interested in Moscow because I was interested in the world view of the Moscow model agency (LUMPEN) and designer Gosha Rubchinskiy at the time.

I printed it on straw paper because I thought it would be nice if it had a grainy feel to give a sense of presence in Moscow.
Because it was a laser printer, I think that the roughness of the image was able to express a sense of realism even more.
