俄罗斯艺术家乌尔杜斯用超现实摄影肖像，呈现少女、恶魔、女英雄与地精的奇幻世界
俄罗斯艺术家乌尔杜斯（TED演讲：颠覆刻板印象的幽默摄影）创作出奇幻而精致的人物摄影肖像——呈现人们心中理想的自我形象。在这一过程中，她打破了外界对当代俄罗斯文化的种种刻板印象。在她的最新系列”罗斯之地”（Russ Land，俄罗斯的斯拉夫古称）中，她潜入历史深处，走进基督教传入前俄罗斯神话与民间传说的魔幻世界。乌尔杜斯探索古老的异教原型、女性气质与魔法，以现代视角重新演绎传统故事，为人们提供了一扇理解俄罗斯身份认同复杂性的视觉之窗。她亲自讲述了每幅作品背后的故事。
三头女神（Triglava）
俄罗斯童话中的女英雄被称为公主（tsarevna），她们受月亮的庇护——月亮是掌管女性气质的宇宙天体。这位三头斯拉夫公主代表着构成大地的三种元素——土壤、水与空气——并肩负守护山岳、山谷与森林的职责。
