She studied at the Saint Petersburg State University of Film and Television, while also exploring painting at V. Shraga\u2019s Studio of Painting and Graphic Arts.<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning of her career, Lidia focused on landscape photography, capturing natural environments and reflecting her passion for outdoor activities. Since 2010, she has worked extensively with analogue photography, combining shooting on film with manual development, experimenting with alternative techniques and exploring the materiality of the photographic image\u2014the interplay between light, chemical processes, and the texture of photographic paper.<\/p>\n<p>Between 2014 and 2016, her work focused on self-portraiture within natural landscapes, where the human figure enters into dialogue with space and surroundings, exploring corporeality, identity, and emotional interaction with nature.<br \/>\nSubsequently, Lidia turned to digital photography, developing her own visual language in portraiture and artistic nude photography. Her works are distinguished by a subtle handling of light, careful attention to the form of the body, and an expressive use of colour.<\/p>\n<p>Her work has been presented in solo exhibitions in Russia and Sweden, as well as in group exhibitions, including the 4th Biennial of Contemporary Photography at the State Russian Museum. Lidia Khaikara\u2019s photographs are part of the collections of the State Russian Museum, the Tsarskoye Selo Museum-Collection in Saint Petersburg, and private collections worldwide.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;284&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1774960534838{padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;285&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;286&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_row gap=&#8221;25&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1774874597554{padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1774964691682{padding-bottom: 5% !important;}&#8221;] About Me [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Lida Khaikara was born in 1986 in Leningrad, now Saint Petersburg.
