Taisiya Krugovih is a well- known person in the art activist movement. That’s the first time she tries herself in a classical gallery space. Her project conceptualizes the concept of multiculturalism in the context of global migration process.
When there are speculations on highest government level about the crisis of the «Unity in diversity» concept, an artist can’t leave aside this problem.
The author analyzes which possible obstacles rise on the path of migrants adaptation in a new society. «I speak one language, but I remain silent on the hundred of others»
How do the linguistic basis of cultures discover rigidity and stability, but at the same time loose their usual geographical shapes? The cinema for migrants is a reflection of the current social situation. Every person who took a step into the dark cinema becomes a "displaced individual «and detects a need to find his own place at first, select a language.
«Dear user, our development team welcomes you in our main menu in order to select the input language, we ask you to occupy your initial position» — the artist begins a performance with these words, immersing us into the world of the «Migrant dictionary, into the reality without embellishment».
