Art Project «Sounds of the Kremlin»

Sound installations that fill the territory of the «Kazan Kremlin» Reserve-Museum, hail modern age from the past and resonate the colorful polyphonic history. The sounds coming from different historical epochs revitalize the kaleidoscope of events, reveal the fate of the Kazan Kremlin through tumultuous times.

Installation «Living Mountain»

A fantastic creature from Tatar mythology – the winged serpent Zilant, has been proudly flaunting on the coat of arms of Kazan since the XVIII century. Multi-valued image of the mythical defender of Kazan has a deep symbolic meaning, uniting ancient beliefs and impulses of modern life.

Did he really exist? Can he still be protecting Kazan but so well hidden that we don’t notice his presence?

Listen to the sounds and find yourself next to a fire-breathing dragon!
