This visual study belongs to the concept development for Chernyi, a project in Kharkiv, Ukraine. The dark interior is almost dissolved into shadow, while several bright light sources become the main points of attention in the space.

Small human figures gather near the light, almost like moths moving toward it. For this project, black was treated not as a flat color, but as a way to work with darkness, contrast, and the direction of light inside the interior.

"A shared moment inside a metaverse environment developed together with Simon Barazin from SB Studio. The space combines avatar fragments, simple 3D geometry, a gridded ground, and a cosmic background."
A MacBook Pro with the Rabbit Coffee Roasters SketchUp model is placed directly on site during installation. The fragment connects the digital project file with the unfinished construction space around it.
A rough iPhone 3D scan was converted into a flat bird-view plan. The result works as a graphic way to read the space from above.
Small leftover details from the Sideriya installation were arranged into the word ВІРА(HOPE). The fragment came from the construction process on the warehouse site in Kharkiv.
