There was no other way. Two forces meet in the work: human and natural. They act as hostile energies to each other, but together - one gives power to the other to spread, the law of coexistence becomes apparent. Moving images reveal a layer about the permanent, mechanical furnishing of the planet by human hands and the adaptation of such (re)formed terrain to one's own needs. The motif of the mountains that keep appearing on the screen are terricones of Phosphogypsum waste piled up in the Kedainiai area. It tells about the current situation of a specific place and about the uncertainty about the future.

YDILE is a romanticized toxic landscape that appears in the work and carries the ambiguous meaning of an (important) landscape.
The meaning of the word "idyllic" is used, which reminds us of a calm, carefree life, imbued with a touch of nostalgia, but there is also the weight of imperfection nearby, which offsets a certain lack, damage, of the idyllic landscape.
Shots from the process.
