Dolly Faibyshev uncovers Palm Spring's suburban time capsule

As an American born to Russian immigrants, Dolly Faibyshev’s observation of her family’s relationship to their adopted homeland led her to the series, Palm Springs. A New York-based, self-taught photographer, Dolly began exploring the meaning of the American dream in a variety of forms. With its pockets of mid-century houses on perfectly manicured lawns, Palm Springs, California is like stepping into the past- it’s a time capsule where much of the architecture has been preserved since the 1950s.

“Sometimes it feels like everything around us is changing so fast, it’s both exciting and unsettling to find a place that hasn’t changed much at all.”– Dolly Faibyshev
