The majority of us lost the tradition of pilgrimage to holy places but, much like centuries ago, fr om time to time we must distance ourselves fr om the daily routine and ask ourselves who we are and wh ere we're going. With time, the need for actual physical contact with one's past grows and we return to the family’s homes and parents’ graves. It ' s there that we become our true selves again, drawing strength from our community with humankind, like the “bogatyr” warriors from Russian fables who would fall wounded to the ground, be nourished by mother earth’s juices and rise to fight again. Each one of us absolutely needs to know that there's a place on earth wh ere one can come, strip oneself of all alien and unnecessary and say to the high skies —“it’s me, o Lord!”.

This U-space is created with Gelia Pisareva's paintings and sculptures.

Technical realization of the project by Konstantin Pakhotin.

Chant (poem and vocal) “Anika the Warrior” by Ludmila Hardikova.
