In this way, the artist calls attention to a disastrous project that the Government of Putin wants to carry out. The water she dances to is the bay of Batareinaya, 100 kilometers west of St. Petersburg. The area, which is part of the Gulf of Finland, is home to many vulnerable species, including swans.
