This work is an awareness of the emotions that were not lived through, recognised, and labelled in time. The ghillie suit, also known by the nickname “kikimora”, becomes the symbol of the hidden and incomprehensible. A fragile flower is covered with a colourful but still a burden. That’s hard.

I can’t help turning into a kikimora, which in folk mythology is a trickster that brings disorder to one’s house. And here I am, bringing chaos into my mind, finding myself under the crosshairs of my emotions, which have hidden in the bushes. I have nowhere to go because I forgot to put on my camouflage suit.

”Kikimora” is a processual artwork that changes over time and is supplemented with new elements.
