THE TABLE II

The video animation reveals the true essence of the table: Putin's obscene fantasies and lust for power. After inflating itself to bursting point, the table explodes and a never-ending stream of sticky liquid pours out onto the screen, along with cascades of matryoshka dolls, which in turn turn out to be weapons and ammunition and further evidence of the bloody war of aggression. The orgy of violence transitions into slow-motion passages that vary central scenes from the film Zabriskie Point by Italian director Michelangelo Antonioni as a kind of ‘Ukrainian requiem’. In keeping with the content, the animated film can only be viewed when one enters a booth covered in red velvet and a viewing hatch opens, as in a peep show.
