]]> Dream-Film-Game “Crupa” 2017.

The Book Fair at the Krupskaya House of Culture is a place outside of time, between dream and reality. Historically, it happened that the space intended for the realization of the creative potential of textile industry workers declined, and at some point, the building fell into the hands of book traders. Subsequently, a school bazaar, numismatists, esoterics, artisans, and souvenir makers appeared here.

The artistic exploration of the Krupskaya House of Culture reached a dead end, never truly beginning. Therefore, instead of a heart-wrenching story or an inspirational tour of great places, we chose the strategy of allusion, or simply put – a fairy tale.

In a certain kingdom, in a certain state, it is unknown from where and why the princess KAMI appeared. Finding herself in a strange set of circumstances, the heroine quickly realizes her task and takes on a mission – to separate the wheat from the chaff, to understand how the place of socialist ideas turned into a stronghold of capitalism.

]]> Contemporary reflection on dirt, based on the insightful novel “What Is to Be Done?” by Chernyshevsky. In one of Vera Pavlovna’s dreams in Chernyshevsky’s novel, there is a remarkable contemplation on the nature of all dirt. The entire reflection is based on the division of dirt into real and fantastical, reigniting the mechanism of binary thinking. How does dirt behave today? And is there a distinct difference in contemporary media reality, where the actual present exists only in the intensity of affect? Dirt is a revolutionary material for the deconstruction of the body and its everyday life. Dirt is the primordial chaos from which a cosmos is born each time. Do we need opposition to dirt if its own vital nature is destruction and disorder?
