Read more about the artwork
Every person experiences embarrassing and tragic events in life, which leave a burden that sways under the influence of various phenomena. War makes this burden even heavier. New, unusual experiences are layered on it, and the reaction becomes more sensitive, and the swing of the emotional state increases in amplitude. "Relia" is a visualization of the so-called "emotional swing", the mechanism of which has been working at full capacity since the beginning of the Russian invasion.
The movement of the swing feeds Moloch, who speaks with sounds of iron. The sculpture is embodied in metal and wood. The main elements of the sculpture are made of metal - the head, jaw and cruise missile/lever. A general skeleton is made of wood, which collects all the metal components of the sculpture. The weight of the metal plays a very important role, as it was easily calibrated by making the sculpting components, the jaw and the lever, almost the same weight, which best actuates the pendulum-lever mechanism to move the jaw-emotion.

Vladyslav Yudin's Relya
"Everyone experiences disturbing and tragic events in their lives, which leave a burden that swings under the influence of various phenomena.
War increases this burden even more. It adds new, unusual experiences to it, and the reaction becomes more sensitive, and the emotional "swing" increases in amplitude.
"Relya" is a visualisation of the so-called "emotional swing", the mechanism of which has been working at full capacity since the beginning of the Russian invasion. The movement of the pendulum fuels Moloch, who speaks with the sounds of iron."
