Insect Machines in the Concrete Bloom

A bilingual visual poem set against the vertical sprawl of New York City. Helicopters hover like insects above the canyon of buildings, echoing the text’s reflection on urban tension and seasonal irony. Shot and written on April 19, 2016, this piece captures a moment of poetic surveillance—where machinery mimics nature, and civilization teeters between bloom and burden. Text in English and Russian. Location and date embedded. Signature of the author included.
