The End of St. Petersburg, or New Icarus

1992, the time of the Perestroika. Inspired by Vsevolod Pudovkin’s “The End of St. Petersburg” (1927), the artist chooses the Greek mythological figure of Icarus as a person falling apart from the diversity of temptations and creates a romantic performance-self-portrait.
