On 4 November, in the evening, residents and guests of the capital saw the new imagery of “Matryoshka of Moscow”.
According to Maxim Liksutov, during the multimedia show — the likes of which do not exist elsewhere in the world — more than 30 new scenes with 3D graphics were shown at Zaryadye Park.
Spectators were shown natural and cultural symbols of our country:
🔹 an owl in the Gzhel style
🔹 polar bears
🔹 the harvest of Russia’s southern regions
🔹 the mountain peaks of the Caucasus
🔹 a Yakut bone figurine.
For the first time the matryoshkas appeared in appearances symbolising the distinctiveness of Russia’s peoples.
“The innovative attraction ‘Matryoshka of Moscow’ has no analogue in the world. It is both a tourist centre and a platform for digital art. Its key feature is a unique kinetic installation that changes shape every 1-2 seconds. At the behest of Moscow’s Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, the technology was implemented by Moscow engineers and companies. Moscow 3D-designers worked for several months to create a multimedia presentation with no equal in the world.
Every element was drawn by hand. Thanks to this, Muscovites and guests of the capital were able to see the natural and cultural symbols of Russia: from the Far North to the Caucasus,” said Maxim Liksutov.
The new programme underscores the idea of Russia’s unity, where culture, technology and art come together to create a modern image of a country that values tradition and draws inspiration from the future.
