The red deer on a white background—a symbol of the Nizhny Novgorod region’s flag—transforms into a living map. Two rivers, the Volga and the Oka, sprout from its antlers; their confluence has for centuries drawn brave and enterprising individuals to the city. The ink wash technique was not chosen by accident: its unpredictable flows are a metaphor for those chance occurrences that reshape reality. The poster speaks to the idea that the city’s courage flows from its history, and progress flows from the willingness to connect.
