About the project (provided by the applicant)
The monument to fire fighter heroes emanates rough masculine power. This helps to demonstrate how challenging and hazardous a fire fighter’s profession is. Dark colored patina looks like soot and adds contrast to the figure. The hero represented has his arm up as if trying to protect himself from the raging fire, and the girl he has saved reacts to the conflagration in a similar way.
The pedestal features the Constructivism style, all the austere geometry, no decorations, and shifted shapes.
