"The photo was taken against the background of a large banner, traditionally placed for the July 3 holiday - Independence Day of the Republic of Belarus. The artist, dressed in light, festive clothing, stands next to a large sign, smiling - all of this is reminiscent of traditional photos with monuments, alluding to visiting tourist sites... However, when the gaze falls to the ground, one can see a leg chain and a heavy metal structure. Thus, the colorful decorations became a backdrop for events filled with contradictory feelings, the energy of change and deep frustration." Alexandr Adamau
