The Master of the Swamps

The Master of the Swamps (2023)


Summary

In high-contrast images reduced to black, white, and red and with expressive illustrations and computer-generated 3D sculptures, Sasha Svirsky formulates his outcry against the war in Ukraine, thus giving a voice to the many Russians who oppose it. He portrays Peter the Great (1672–1725), the first emperor of the Russian Empire, as a ruthless man of power who has lost all respect for human life.
