The End of St. Petersburg, or New Icarus

6.3 Конец Санкт-Петербурга или Новый Икар

1992, 6 m

1992, the time of the Perestroika. Inspired by Vsevolod Pudovkin’s “The End of St. Petersburg” (1927), the artist chooses the Greek mythological figure of Icarus as a person falling apart from the diversity of temptations and creates a romantic performance-self-portrait.
