The Red Terror project is an attempt to prevent the possibility of future violence by committing a violent act over the forest - one of the main temples of nature.
We came to the forest and imposed our will by taking away its part by a flat plane of our permanent beliefs, desires and needs...
A square of once living trees, which have saved their forms and meanings rather than the former true life, should remind us about dangerous power within us. A power, which should be treated with caution and determination of correct ways of its application.
