Critical infrastructure objects
The phrasing “critical infrastructure object” was one of the most popular in the newsfeed during the winter of 2022-2023 under conditions of massive Russian shelling and the destruction and blackouts caused by it. For me, this is a disturbing euphemism: when you cannot reveal the secret and show exactly where the missile hit, but at the same time, you should inform people about the current state of affairs. It's a kind of balance between portraying the actual situation, keeping military secrecy, and not frustrating Ukrainian society too much. There is also a broader scope for interpretation because everyone has an infrastructure that is critical for them. With the help of utilitarian materials at hand, not intended for graphics, I wanted to create spaces/objects that warp, collapse, and crumble. These objects are abstract and do not reveal any geolocation or military secrets.
