Embroidery on postcards from the exhibition ‘Boris Smelov's Petersburg’ (Museum of City Sculpture, 15.11-15.12.2010, St. Petersburg).
Postcard, muline threads, tram ticket, yarn / 10x15 cm / 2025
The embroidery uses a fragment from a poem by Marina Tsvetaeva. The postcard itself, the place where the photograph was taken - Universitetskaya Embankment in St. Petersburg, as well as the tram ticket - are united with the text of the poem in a single space of nostalgia, making us feel the presence in that point of the past time, which can be recreated only in a poetic image woven with the help of the collage method.

The embroidery uses a fragment from a song by the band Night Snipers, which very accurately reflects the state of life in the mysterious, complex, but so attractive city of St. Petersburg. Boris Smelov captured the very heart of St. Petersburg, its spiritual component. The author of the embroidery makes an attempt to layer one sense of the city on another. To combine the poetics of the invisible with a literal shot of the city.
