The work by Yegor and Mykyta Zigura, recently installed in a park on the Dniprovska embankment, is inextricably linked to the surrounding environment. Ukrainian astrophysicists worked on the project together with the authors, according to their calculations, the sun will pass between the male and female figures, with the gradual disappearance of the luminary from the horizon.
The location combines modern sculpture and a relevant architectural solution from Kyiv urbanist Stanislav Demin. A new area has been created around the figures for the recreation of citizens and guests of the capital: a convenient observation deck, thematic design of paving and paths, stylish benches and night lighting. The art object itself is made of more than 1,000 welded polished stainless steel rods and pipes, the height of the work exceeds 4.5 meters, and its width is about 4 meters.
Yegor and Nikita Zigura have already turned to welding technology before: the sculpture "New Prometheus" was installed on the territory of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, and a new work by the brothers, called "R / evolution", was installed in the center of Dnipro. The sculptural composition "Unity" and the improvement of the territory were carried out thanks to the initiative and with the support of the International Charitable Foundation "Life with Excess" ICF "Life with Excess" and Oleksiy Kotkovsky, one of the permanent patrons of the foundation. Art management was provided by the company s.com.ua. Video: Dmytro Vyhovsky
