Description:

Between two theaters (Musical Theater and National Theater) on Kirov Square in the city of Petrozavodsk there is another theater – right on the square in the late evening you can see street racers. On the roof of the National Theater there is a camera that broadcasts machine choreography on the Internet. During the day, I noticed that the area was streaked with traces of tire friction on the asphalt, and for two or three days I painted over these traces with white, making them visible not only to me, but also to others. These traces record this theater of movement, it lasts in these static traces, it is his handwriting.
