What the photos say

What the photos say about Dmitry Orlov

Open space instead of an office
He films himself full-length against the sea, palms and sky, often with his arms spread wide. There are almost no shots at a desk: his language is freedom and space.
Spiritual search, hands-on
Temples and Buddha statues are not decoration for him. He stands before them, raises a hand in the shrine, and returns to these themes in conversation.
Two images
A contemplative in black and linen in Bali, with black-and-white portraits. And a bon vivant in patterned shirts, with a glass and night lights. Both are real.
Director of his own channel
Covers with a large face and a strong emotion, bright headlines, the Mechanicus mythology and an autobiography by chapter. He understands how attention works.
Warmth toward the weak
Cats and dogs of the shelter, a toy in his hands, thanks from 'Predannoe Serdce'. His care shows in the frame, not only in words.
Working on himself
Braces for a new smile, the gym, a Google certificate. He does not hide that he is changing.
