Surreal photographs by Russian photographer Ilya Kisaradov show us how vulnerable people can be and how they isolate themselves from external threats.
The subject matter of the photos is often associated with a sense of limitation hidden from understanding, and the effect can be enhanced by a bird cage or even the hair of one of the heroines tightly wrapped around the head.
