Russian street artist Timofey Radya recently built a sculpture made of 55 riot police shields in the shape of a card house.This installation, named Figure #1: Stability, refers, in his own words, to the idea of “stability associated with modern Russia” (note that the sculpture fell down under the wind after a little while).
The construction process, visible in a video uploaded on Youtube, was a performance in itself, acted by masked people dressed in camouflage. A red carpet led to the fragile monument and a golden throne was put on top of the construction.
