The floor was lava

The floor was lava

Estonia, 2021

When we were kids, we used to play the floor is lava in spooky abandoned buildings, but we never realised that the floor really was lava. Through exploring the post-Soviet space that remains in Estonia, I reconcile with my childhood memories and confront the absurdity of being haunted by a past regime that I never experienced.

The floor was lava will be exhibited during the Graduation Show of the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague from 8-11 July 2021.
