A wooden boat, which is used to be a popular means of transportation in the region, is the central symbolic object of my installation in the North of Russia, Teriberka. The massive use of wooden boats at the time changed the appearance of the villages and towns of the Murmansk region; many wooden garages appeared on the banks of the rivers, lakes and bays. Garages became a kind of a third place — a space where people from the neighborhood spent time together making and repairing boats. Today the garage culture as well as the craftsmanship of making wooden boats has been lost; wooden boats were replaced by more modern models. The boats presented on the podium were assembled on the banks of the Wyrm River in the village of Lovozero, and then moved to Teriberka, where their first meeting with the Barents Sea took place. Teriberka has its own rich history of boat building, but here, too, wooden boats have been preserved only as a memory of the past. The coast of the Barents Sea has become a meeting point for two different fishing cultures, united by a similar history: here the river meets the sea. The boats, archived in a new place and turned upside down, received a new meaning and the opportunity to become a new third place for Teriberka. This painting is reflection of this prijects. I imagin that this boats are floating in their new form and life.
