Tuesday Flickr Set: The projects of Ilya Ruderman.

We found Ilya Ruderman on a random Web search for Pinch. It seems that there's a Flickr community of the same name that collects and connects photographers from the world over. They do a little interview series called Five Questions, in which the current subject determines the next interview. It's good. To date, there has been twelve or so of these sessions and early in the series, (the photographer) Ilya Ruderman was one of those subjects. His photos are one thing; quite a beautiful study of people, places, and objects. His Project | Double Shots with Yury Ostromentsky and Panorama sets suggest a colorized time and place long removed. But his typographic work—with Russian type designers for Daily Type and Typoholic—is quite another, and both properties are wholly impressive. We suggest you look around. Follow their leads, no matter where they take you. Like the projects themselves, it's a satisfying exploration.
