Our concept & mission…
This project could have also been called “Cultural Elements,” but due to global social evolution, I believe there is still time for the development of nations and their values. It seems to me that fragments of the Logos which are important for people are scattered around the world. These are lost knowledge from past civilizations that have been preserved in the traditions and culture of different peoples, ethnic groups, and territories. Somewhere, they are expressed in clothing and patterns, somewhere in songs and architectural ornaments, and somewhere in martial arts or applied crafts. The National Elements project is created for the perspective and future. It is an idea and a dream of traveling and exploring different cultures and territories, with subsequent documentation of national and cultural beauty.
My task is to gather and create visual, digital content from this knowledge, which will serve as a memory and resource for the creative people of future generations. From filming beautiful landscapes of different countries to modeling and animating national symbols and signs.
I don’t know if I will be able to digitize all the beauty of the countries of all continents in my lifetime, create beautiful video art and thematic photo and video materials that will tell the story of different ethnic groups and peoples. But I am absolutely sure that such a digital library of national content will be useful both to tourism and promotion departments of any state, and to amateurs and professionals who will create their own art or creative projects.
For me, National Elements is a certain gratitude to the states and peoples where I have lived, studied, or simply traveled. I completely exclude the concept of “nations competition” from my life, as I am absolutely sure that every people and nation, like every state, is unique. And every country has its own design, its own specific metaphysical Gnosis, which is not found in others. It is important for me to find this uniqueness and emphasize it by creating graphic, photo-video, and audio-visual content to support national and cultural values and promote them on the international arena.
