About the project (provided by the applicant)
A mosaic panel at VDNH in Yalta Square on the theme of the Year of Youth, generational connections, and modernity, the work is bright and symbolic. The main character of the panel is a boy flying a kite into the sky. This image symbolizes the boundless possibilities and creative potential of youth, as well as their aspiration for freedom and independence. The sketch features birds native to the Crimean Peninsula, representing the pursuit of new horizons, lightness, beauty, and harmony. Together with the kite, they create an image of freedom of spirit and the desire to soar higher and further.
Cypress trees are also included, symbolizing wisdom and spirituality, reminding viewers of the importance of preserving the traditions and values of previous generations, which must be remembered and respected.
