Life consists of water. It is with us at all moments. If it is not with us, then 80% of us, of our selves is missing.
Valentin Voronov-Gvozdinsky  80% Created in collaboration with Rita Dyachkova.

“It happened during a philosphy lesson. Rita was there, around her a lot of people; they were talking all the time and it was wery loud, but she wanted silence and suddenly she created silence into the water. She understood that there was no such philosphy that could tell you more than a drop of water.”

Treasure
The man with the money runs along the coast. He stops to catch his breath and his hands eagerly rake through the banknotes. He notices nothing except the money. And when he pulls the box, he does not look at it. Fear drives on…

Poetry about water.

Feel The Flow
An experimental short film with its visual world and rhythm inspired by the movement, current, and pulse of water.

Ritual No. 5
Ritual No.5 is a result of an experiment, in which the human affected nature is being captured digitally with intentional errors. The video was recorded by a circuit-bended camera. The abstraction that can be seen in the footage was made on location during the recording by dividing and distorting the pixels of the original view.

In Existence I
A little boy in a swim cap and goggles, as such in complete anonymity, makes swimming movements in an unidentifiable, foggy, gray space. He is floating in the void. While standing. We only see his movements in slow motion. Our existence is like this. We swim, float, water is a part of our lives, our existence. We try. We “float in the void,” continuously repeating the movements. This is how we exist.
