On the one part there is a long projection from floor to ceiling on fabric strip and the wall behind it. On the other part as if the light goes out the window there is a projection on the window. The sound plays an important role in this work. It creates an additional volume and allows the viewer to think through visual images. Projection on fabric strip is moving upside-down so the viewer gets an illusion of rotation. The sound amplifies this effect. It seems that under the floor and over the ceiling a strip continues to move. There is an image of caterpillar tractor bursting through the floor and going into the ceiling. It looks as if it grinds space while projection turns visually from caterpillar into abstract figures, in other words from rigid form into soft and light. The sound is also changing from aggressive to soaring.
The window tears a round moving pattern and makes a way out from the vicious circle. But at the same time it is not open and it is beside bars.
Essentially, it is сonversion of heavy, rough, mechanical matter into smooth, lightweight, thin substance incarnates as escaping into the light behind the window.
