An interactive multimedia sculptural installation that was created specifically for the "Crimean Platform" project at the initiative and with the full support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the Ukrainian Institute. Implemented in partnership with GO-X-platform. Plexus (Latin: plexus): The installation is dedicated to Crimea and symbolises the socio-cultural interconnection between people, which is a factor of civil society. The concept of the project reveals the main message that the value of the country is integrity and unity. A person and his or her voice directs the development of society in a certain direction. Everyone is responsible for their choices, and everyone has a powerful tool: the will and position, which are manifested in action.
The sculpture has touch and heartbeat sensors, so it "feels" the touch, reads the heart rate, and responds with changes in the graphics, adding the visitor's "voice" to the PLEXUS. Thus, by touching the sensor, the viewer can vote for the unity of the country.
In a passive mode, the installation screens show a particular ornament, a symbol of Crimea and the Crimean Platform Summit, animated with figures from databases on the changes in the peninsula's population: mainly Crimean Tatar since the 18th century to a mixed multi-ethnic population in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
