Soaring microdistrict, picnic of five-storey houses

Archstoyanie 2006. Summer

In a basis of installation the geometrical pattern repeating a lay-out of the Soviet area of 60th years lays. The pattern is made of 50 modules which proportions correspond to proportions panel five-floor house.
Each module represents the easy wooden design dosed by white bedsheets. All modules снивеллированы on height, — their top horizontal planes («roofs houses») always are at one level irrespective of differences of a local landscape.
Thus located on a slope of a hill «microdistrict» as though fly above a landscape. Whether the tables covered by white cloths, whether sick-lists of a cot, whether white coffins, whether the state linen hanged out for drying, — these 50 regular elements in a pastoral rural landscape is a temporary monument of the Soviet modernization.
