Katpar
"Katpar" is an alternative history of the material culture of the region between the Great Steppe and the Tien Shan mountain chain (Ural-Mongol fold belt, Hercynian and Caledonian regions). The viewers' attention is drawn to art and research materials collected in one album, showing fictional artefacts of material culture in its various manifestations - from a nail to large-scale production buildings and high-tech machines. All artefacts demonstrate the particular material forms (fold-qatpar) manifested in this region over centuries as a tension between local nature and culture.
