| Item Description: | "A photobook ... by photographer Yevgen Nikiforov and art historian Polina Baitsym records a vanishing phenomenon on the periphery of art and public life. The archive, collected between 2013 and 2023 ... presents mosaics by unknown authors in a state of half-decay ... Na̐ve mosaics are often a mundane backdrop for local residents, or an uncomfortable ... material for the transformation process of public spaces. The book focuses on them as a phenomenon that raises questions about memory and space, past and present, self-expression and imitation, and captures the fragility of the monumental, which, like chips, eventually became crumbs at the bottom of the package." - from blurb, p. 2. |
