In Search of the Bluebird

A series of sculptures—a dialogue with Stanislavsky’s legendary performance, whose world premiere took place at the Moscow Art Theatre in 1908.I merged the memory of the space with a new plastic language. Familiar motifs—the Fairy, the Night, Light, Time, the Cat and the Dog, Mitil and Tiltil, the Blue Bird—were given an authorial design. Material and light serve as a metaphor for «seeing the invisible,» a spiritual sight that Metelink and Stanislavsky sought.Each sculpture was faithfully translated from a pencil sketch into three dimensions using nanobanana and further refined in a graphics editor.Seven sculptures mark seven stops on a journey: from the Fairy to the Blue Bird. The conclusion serves as a reminder: you must be able to see happiness when it is close by.
