Suitcase Aigul Mikhailova @aigulekphoto A suitcase with neatly folded clothes seems ready for a journey. The world passport is an attempt to imagine a utopia where borders are erased, and documents cease to be a tool of control. There is no nationality, age, or place of birth – only a point marking presence. A photograph of a broken landscape – a place that once was home. The photograph is torn and re-shot – I take it with me, along with the memory, pain, and hope. My utopia is to find a place where I can feel at home

The fragility of the ideal Ksenia Malurika @malurikart The heart-shaped form, crafted from beads like an embroidered illusion, becomes a manifestation of a dream — an image of utopia, beautiful and desirable. Here, the heart stands as a metaphor for the individual, society, or the dream itself: outwardly whole and alluring, yet internally composed of rigid, unrefined, though structurally reliable elements. This contrast highlights the dissonance between expectation and reality — we build our ideals from beautiful fragments, yet their foundations often rest on harsh and uncomfortable frameworks. Behind the utopian shell lies a complex, unresolved reality. The cold, oceanic palette is devoid of the warmth traditionally associated with the heart, evoking a sense of detachment — as if the heart no longer belongs to the body, no longer bound to emotion. It appears suspended outside of the living context, dwelling instead in an otherworldly, aestheticized space.

Kintsugi of the walls Roman Drozang @drozang - Crack (ひび), the use of gold dust and resin or lacquer to attach broken pieces with minimal overlap or fill-in from missing pieces. - Piece method (欠けの金継ぎ例); if a replacement fragment is not available and the entirety of the addition is gold or gold/lacquer compound. - Joint call (呼び継ぎ), the use of a similarly shaped but non-matching fragment to replace a missing piece from the original vessel.

multicolored confusion Kirill Vorontsov @kirill_vorontsov Soviet playgrounds in gloomy courtyards. As a child, I didn’t know how to use them, didn’t know if they were broken or designed that way, didn’t understand how to play with them, and what their creators wanted to say. Now I think that was the main message of these playgrounds - figure it out yourself.

Milk river, jelly shores Olga Grechanova @linden_tar I see any utopia as an attempt to impose violence on the other. In the fairy tale The Magic Swan Geese, one moment really strikes me — when the heroine cannot refuse the offered treats and at the same time stay alive. The «rivers of milk and jelly banks» — a symbol of abundance and goodness — loses its appeal and becomes suffocating when there is no choice.

Disappointment Lolita Chaprak @velvet.slumber "In my project, I address the concept of utopia not as an ideal place, but as a space also built on control and the loss of identity. I am also interested in initiating a discussion on euthanasia, viewing it as a human right to a painless death."

NOWHERE Mila Kowalski @mila_kowalski_ The mirage of utopia as an existential longing for the lost paradise (Jung), where the paradise lost is not only a symbol of a vanished utopia, but also a deeper, internal loss as an archetype experienced of a collective, human loss. The paradise lost is also a symbol of the rupture from primal, undivided wholeness — and the subconscious yearning to return it. Total installation collect from memories and fragments of dreams, immerses you in a memory that never happened — but you remember it. Ph: @bigelesha

«When Stones Begin to Dream» Mari Kutuzova @mmio.re The desire for utopia often turns into new forms of control. Where a person longs for freedom, they create new boundaries, and where they seek order, rigid frameworks arise. In the pursuit of perfection, they accumulate new limitations, turning their movement into a struggle with themselves. In the work “When Stones Begin to Dream”, this paradox is explored: the longing for something higher leads to a self-contained cycle where freedom and limitation coexist simultaneously.

Entangled Being Nikita Baskov @goricolo Being instructions: don’t get tangled in structures! The Being performs an assembly-disassembly of itself and its reality on the way to the ideal image that exists only in its head. How to realize your ideal reality? There’s no ready answer. Unresolvable contradictions will be solved through dialectically practical transformations of the Being during the performance. Being instructions: never get out of structures! Ph: @annywinchesterr

«я тоже не знаю» Daria Shalunova @dariawierdo I don’t see the object as a finished form, but as a living invitation — a proposal for dialogue with oneself and with unknown others. In my works, the object becomes a call not just to look, but to take part, to feel with, and sometimes even to share a bodily presence. What interests me is the moment of encounter — when the viewer senses that their attention becomes part of the work, that their presence transforms it. I want my objects to enter perception deeply, to act as a step toward a new understanding of things. Ph: @annywinchesterr

Minda Elena Slobtseva @slobtseva_visual In modern psychology, we are taught to listen to our desires, to notice them, and to pursue their fulfillment. Interestingly, in Georgian, the words «minda» and «ar minda» — «I want» and «I don’t want» — are heard frequently, both from children and adults, even in contexts where Russian might use «I need» or English would say «I have to.» I long for a society where many «I want»s can coexist peacefully, without the usual caveats like «wanting won’t hurt you,» «you want too much,» or «you’ll get over it
