Kremlin is known for its Wall - the pattern of its red bricks symbolize modern Russia as nothing else nowadays.
In the ancient China The Great Wall protected the country from the barbarians.
All of the Middle Ages cities had massive walls that protected the settlements(and the Kremlin Wall as well).
At the times of the Soviet Union there have been an «iron curtain»(meaning the wall between East and West).
In Berlin it was a real wall between the Eastern Germany and the Western Germany(but at the same time between the East and the West in General), but it fell in 1989, and many people thought that it’s the beginning of the new Era: era of coopetation between the East and the West. The demolition of the Berlin Wall became a symbol of the change…
Seemed like in the 20-21 century Walls are about to fall, not to Arise (if you’re not Trump).
Lately there have been a lot of discussions that Kremlin is building a New metaphorical Wall between Russia and the rest of the World. It’s a wall dividing not only countries and nations, but families. A division of values. A New Wall is built by Kremlin.
This is a wall that we will have to demolish in the future. And we, artists, will start to do it right now.
