"What we find in Sasha Sokolova’s recent works is often a solipsistic vision, an urban panorama in which the rituals of the everyday are performed regardless of the public context: street games, bars and social interaction in which the players appear unaware of being observed and oblivious to the proximity of those around them.
Sasha captures this corner of everyday reality with a highly trained eye and dexterity of execution that lays bare what might otherwise pass us by, and does so with an almost whimsical empathy and understanding. As with all her works, she does our looking for us. And, just perhaps, encourages us to take closer note the next time we encounter a dog walker on the street."
