Critics Review
Powerful * Daily Mail *
Arbugaeva has a particular empathy for people living in the far north - and the conditions they face. Hyperborea reveals a decade of her travels around the region, documenting the fragility and desolation of the land and the people on it * The i Newspaper *
Born in the remote port of Tiksi in northeast Siberia, Arbugaeva has spent much of her career capturing her homeland from air, land and sea * New York Times Book Review *
Arbugaeva skilfully captures the multi-dimensionality of the Arctic - a realm of ice that appears primitive yet is rich with stories, landscapes, colours, and emotions. Her work unveils both the beauty and the deep melancholy of this unique place * Contemporary Lynx *
