Pavel Pepperstein brings together fantastical scenes with a range of cultural and political symbols in his surrealist watercolours. In 1987, Pepperstein, along with a number of collaborating artists, established the experimental group Inspection Medical Hermeneutics. Upon the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the collective adapted a critical stance, critiquing the influence of Western culture in Russia.
