“Answer” is an instagram project dedicated to violence and traumatic experience. "In the Answer, it was interesting for me to explore instagram as an art platform. What unit of museum space can a post be? Profile? Mark or geolocation?" - says its author, publisher Maxim Chumin. The project consists of four rooms-accounts, which tell the same story in different ways. The viewer examines them gradually, moving from one to another - a mixture of images, texts, audio recordings and correspondence fragments. You can immediately go to one of the parts from the main page of the project.
“The story is very intimate and personal - this is what happened to me for a long time and with which I worked for a long time. But I was faced with the fact that after reading“ The Answer ”, people remained sure that it was an invention,” says Maxim Chumin. it seems to be because of what they say now about violence. Sometimes it happens that fits into the “norms”, causes empathy, is there another - which, maybe, is not violence from another side?
