"Physical map of soviet union collapse"
This work is a large physical map created by a system of circles. In each circle there is a letter, all these letters together forms the text of the «Belovezhskaya Accords». «Belovezhskaya Accords» - is the document that was sign between former soviet union republics, about respect of borders and sovereignty. Which wasn’t respectfull from such contries as Russia and Belorus afrer a while. The main idea of the project is to destroy the generally accepted conventions of the format, thereby affirming the general conventionality of geopolitical processes. Using the system of elements, I show a picture that is formally a map of the former Soviet Union, but, in practice, it is not a map, because it cannot be read like a map: it is impossible to read the borders of the former republics, to check their scale and geographical position. I print the text of the agreement, which became, perhaps one of the most important events in the history of this territory, but this text is also no longer a document, although its content has been preserved, but it cannot be fully deciphered due to the lack of a text document format. The purpose of the work is to evoke in the viewer the feeling of the absence of any boundaries and formats, because even on a geopolitical scale, they are only a convention that is constantly violated.
