Aachen to Yakhroma is a collection of illustrated travel notes from Nikita Alexeev’s journeys through Europe, something between a diary and a travelogue.
The texts and images that documented the details of his travels were a mnemonic tool which allowed the artist to easily recall memories of past events. These notes previously existed as an art object, a leather-bound «suitcase book» with over 600 drawings. Attached to it was a thumb drive with texts. The only copy of the «suitcase book» was sold to an unknown collector and lost. The drawings and texts from it are being published for the first time.
