Cosmodreams at the Zaryadye Park

The large-scale SPA20CE21 project is currently showcased at the Zaryadye Park in Moscow. Space-themed exhibits are on view at the Media Center Hall and the Nature Center. On 4 March, new artworks by the contemporary Russian artists were added to the display at the Media Centre Hall, including four digital copies of Marina Fedorova's paintings from her COSMODREAMS project.

‘I sought to create an idealistic utopia in which beautiful women have no need for spacesuits – unless they are “stuck” on Earth,’ explains the artist Marina Fedorova. 

Two of the artworks exhibited in the Media Center Hall feature augmented reality scenarios. A QR code links to the Cosmodreams AR application that, once downloaded by the viewers, will transport them into the virtual reality of the Conversation and Sunset artworks. The application supports Android and iOS. 

‘Digital paintings by the contemporary Russian artists and illustrators are the main focal point of our pavilion design in 2021. The artists’ signature treatment of the space theme, be it the endlessness of the Universe, intergalactic flights or alien intellect, is in itself an exciting journey that we invite our guests to join. The soundtrack to this journey is unique to each pavilion due to individual “space” radio stations broadcasting there,’ comments the Zaryadye press team.

The exhibits can be viewed through the end of June 2021. Free admission.
