The Ray. Homage to Mikhail Larionov (2007)

Exhibitions: The Elements of Light, State Central Museum of Modern History of Russia, Moscow, 2007

Video installation represents a three-faceted inversed
pyramid 5.5 m high. Its sides are projection screens
showing natural and civilizational symbols moving
about them.
This ray is both material and ephemeral. At the same
time it is a monument, a living memory of the inventor
of “luchism” (rayism), a great Russian avantgard
painter.
