Hello, im Serghei. This is my portfolio. Have a look around :) 



светлая память / Bright Memory




At my mother’s birthday celebration in Tiraspol, my father dances joyfully with her in his arms.
In Germany, I have never seen my parents dance.

“светлая память – Bright Memory” is a photographic exploration of a place that has been familiar to me since childhood.
My grandmother and other family members live in Transnistria, which my parents and I regularly visit.
The work depicts the current state of this politically complex region, shaped by melancholy, societal division, and the constant proximity to Russia.
Migration also plays a role: my parents moved away from Chișinău with my sister and me.
Many others are leaving Transnistria in search of a new life in Europe or Russia.

In English, светлая память translates to Bright Memory.
The expression is used when a loved one passes away.
It carries all the beautiful memories that the deceased leaves behind, embedded in this condolence.

In Flagranti 














In the winter of 2023 2024, an arsonist set fire to several gazebos in Wolfsburg. 
As photographic detectives, we set out in search of the perpetrator and the genre of true crime.

Hellelfenbein





Traditional cab drivers like Uwe Jessen are experiencing a decline in spontaneous journeys as customers 
increasingly turn to fixed-price services such as Uber, Bolt and Free Now. 
The once cherished freedom of the profession is giving way to the pressure
of competition and long waiting times. The cab industry in Berlin between tradition and the
challenges of modern mobility services.

Industriestadt




Wolfsburg is not a city that grew organically. 
It was constructed as an industrial city — a symbol of a place in complete dependence on a single corporation.
