summer pick and mix (the last one)
|
I was very busy and had no chance to finish my post with photos that I already uploaded to my blog. This one is going to be the last one. It is time to quickly publish here some of my autumn images already. This is a window of a Russian train going from Moscow to Novorossiysk. We travelled by this train several times already. Being obsessed with windows and doors anyway I like the design of its windows.
Next several photos are taken in Maly Utrish. Windows and doors again. I am fascinated by destructed buildings, stripped to their nature, their bones, if you like. The structure is distorted in some places so is the function of them. It has changed from the fish farm buildings to changing room, toilet and a retreat for desperate couples seeking privacy. After the fish farm was abandoned the architecture started to fall under the forces of nature and people. It was as much destroyed by humans as by natural causes.
Power lines of different sort.

I have been making without a stop since March. I used every minute of my time to make or think about making, it, sort of, became an addiction. I made my sketchbook obsolete, as I could make and see what

Forest
The idea for the Zhukovsky Forest installation came to me rather late but I could not abandon it. The shape of the main piece is taken from the map of the piece of the forest being cut down. It has
Despair
When a glass or a peace of crockery gets broken – it is for the happiness, we say in Russia. Unfortunately, not so well made mould means not that perfect cast. It wasn’t an easy task to make a silicone
Finishing touches
Today I have been finishing my latest tests and pieces. Some of my glazes completely failed, so I had to do some spray paint rescue operation. I know how to fix them, but now I have no time for more
