MAYANA NASYBULLOVA

A series of ceramic panels using found objects associated with the transformation of the legendary Optical Institute into a fashionable loft. All doors, furniture, and devices are signed with the abbreviation GOI. Corridors, offices, and research laboratories were emptied before leasing the premises. Layers of the history of Soviet optical science, all its paraphernalia, turned into titanic piles of rubbish, among which were scraps of photographs. These fragments of the larger picture will no longer come together into a cohesive whole.
