All works in the series are made using the collage technique: Vladimir fills the sheet with pieces of local newspapers, on top of which he draws the desired image with watercolors. Its background consists of fragments of newspaper headlines, forming a kind of agenda. And the newspaper itself is also crucial here — the chronicle of the current events is torn apart to frame the monument — a significant and relevant urban image.
