In such a context, the role of each citizen, of art and of artists is to intentionally, rationally, persistently, and tirelessly bend the pillars of this system\u2014toward a better future. According to Soviet propaganda, art was simply a survival tool that \u201cshould not mix with politics.\u201d Today, however, art\u2019s primary function in our country is to disenchant. The art of absolute responsibility ends in absolute sterility.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>That is why this work is open: it allows citizens into the co-existence of politics and art. Together, they dismantle the boundaries of the environment and grant it a form of autonomy.
