POPADANETS CALENDAR, 2024
12 calendars, 70x100 cm each, silkscreen on recycled paper

A series of 12 calendars reflects the imaginary world of the protagonist of the books about popadantsy, or travelers to the past of Russia.

The first calendar begins on February 24, 2022, the day Russia invaded Ukraine, with dates arranged in reverse order, moving backward from February 2022 to March 2021.

Each calendar is a collage of nostalgic images from the Soviet past, including one that references the Soviet Union’s victory in World War II.

The background for collages is old Soviet wallpaper print, the pattern of which is familiar to everyone from that time.
