About this artwork

Done by palette knife. Amusement park of the city of Pripyat, Chernobyl Ukraine. This is the place where realize the full scale of the disaster. The park, like the city, was abandoned after the Chernobyl disaster on 1986 .Looking at children's carousels and cars broken and dirty and in which children have never ridden, can feel a sense of fear from the tragedy that claimed thousands of innocent lives. The park was supposed to open on May 1 ,1986. Bet this was not designed to happen, since the tragedy at Chernobyl occurred on the night of April 25-26, 1986 , 5 days before opening of the park.
