Lenore Goralik (discussion on the project "snob")
I was thinking yesterday about why I want to wear stripes, and in general - about what this action was for me. I realized that it was not about the current government, not about that ignorant darkness, who wrote many of the current Russian history textbooks, in general, not about "the discourse of the upper. For me it is - about individuals. About the living, that is, people. 's Present and those times.

I once asked a very intelligent and very dear to me man, clandestine cultural activities in the USSR (prepared by the suitcase in the corridor, firing, offers "sign", landing a full set): "How did you live there, inside?" I was thinking - "How do you just lived, as spent hours of their time?" He did, apparently, understood, and said: "Day after day. This answer was for me extremely important for understanding how had been built - and for my family including - the Stalinist terror, and what is its makabrichesky terror: in a dark veil, enveloping your simple privacy, sticky love, work, children, books, words, to what generally makes for death everyday happiness. For me, this campaign - about the fact that there are regimes (and the people administering these modes), which entangle the daily lives of those who fell into their meat grinder, sticky dark shroud. Regardless of how the turn under the regime of your own fate - whether you're sitting or soot, child or adult, protivobortsem or collaborator, or zekom freestyle - you day after day to choke in the shroud, and there is no such cause or a feeling for which you could take to escape - and which would not have been plastered with this blanket. I think that it is so made hell.

Another part of this action for me - not about those who lived and perished then, but about those who live now. I think if you describe many people who really do not understand (or those who fear to understand, or just for the effect are flirting its alleged failure to understand), a shroud, and a peace and a life they will say: "It is arranged hell." And if you say: "It was this right here, where you live, most recently," - they may be, and the truth will understand.
