Jane and Louise -'Space Base' is focused on a space-training facility for cosmonauts in Moscow.
Built at the height of the Cold War during the 1950s, for many years the facility was a‘hidden city’. The work travels through time to capture the very essence of the space race and the Russians determination to dominate.Through skillful photography they capture the importance of the machinery and science that took priority, most of which has now been replaced and the old space suits left abandoned like corpses on shelves.
