A new layer of the WALL project in the framework of the III Biennale of Street Art will appear on the territory of the Contemporary Art Center Winzavod from July 30 to August 19.
Work Concentration by Vladimir Abih emphasizes the place of a person in the information space with the help of augmented reality. When you point the smartphone’s camera at the "Concentration" word the gadget screen starts to fill up with digital garbage, which we face every day: the viewer plunges into the game in order to wave away pop-up windows of the messengers, hearings about calls and letters, memes and ad. The artist's work is located in the virtual and physical plane at the same time, acting as a metaphor of attention deficit disorder.
