“Do what you can and then whatever happens, happens”. This well-known saying seems to have a universal meaning and yet it is perceived differently on an individual level — what is “doing”, what can one do? The main question is whether you make the wall protecting you from environment — or become an organic part of the wider world. What is the guarantee of your safety — strong walls or a strong understanding of the situation around you? The authors of the project induce you to open your eyes to the reality of the big wider world, even if the comfort of your personal little space clashes with it.
This U-space is designed by Dmitry Petukhov, using a work by Alexandr Fedorov “Duckweed”.
Technical realization of the project by Oleg Teptsov.
Soundtrack by Igor Korobko.
Sound — Igor Yakovel.
