Leninminal Spaces

Add some VHS filter to it and the text "you have nothing to lose but your chains", then you got a laborwave image.

This is excellent. It almost seems like an installation

What if we kissed by the abandoned Lenin head

I feel like there’s a story behind this picture. Maybe something like having a bit too much vodka the night before, which resulted in someone having the brilliant idea of decapitating a Lenin statue and bringing the head home. Apparently, it didn’t fit through the door, so they had to leave it in the stairway.

They did have a huge surplus of Lenin statues in the former Soviet sphere of influence after 1989. While some were aggregated in “Lenin yards” (apparently there’s a huge one in an industrial area in Lithuania) and others unceremoniously melted down, if someone were to souvenir the head of one such statue, it might not have been noticed.

I like to think the statue was already there and they built the apartments around it.

Leninal spaces?

This picture gives me some serious "Disco Elysium" vibes.
