• Verb: Action according to the meaning of the verb: to break, to break, to break. • Noun: The result of such an action: the place where the destruction occurred or what was formed as a result of damage to an object, violation of its integrity due to a blow, strong pressure, etc. • Figurative:: internal discord, violation of unity, integrity (in a person's consciousness, in a certain environment, etc.). Also - a difference in views, thoughts. In childhood, the world seemed friendly and safe. The future awaited ahead, gradually unfolding like a roll of wallpaper - a linear story, where everything happens logically, each event is a consequence of the previous act and life goes its own way, fairly and calmly. All the events of recent years (pandemic, wars) have erased this illusion, destroyed our idea of the world as something predictable. The dense fabric of reality seems to have cracked, and through this fresh rift I see a confusion of unstructured phenomena, the chaos of existence, which takes away any hope for order and peace. This is the rift, a crack in what I considered a strong and stable life. The civilization that humanity so diligently built turned out to be fragile. And instead of the dreamed-of technological paradise, where everything bad (wars, diseases, hard work) was left behind, we found ourselves in a red-light, confusing and dangerous reality. And here there is no certainty or guarantees, only chaos and anxiety. The rift is like a dream on the very edge of consciousness, when you are not yet asleep, but are already dreaming between two worlds. And gradually waking up, I see something growing on the edge of this rift: an inversion, something that has no place in our world. P.S. All photos were taken on special RedScale type 135 film.
