City Л. is any small city in Kazakhstan that may seem uninteresting at first glance. But what is interesting? We often imagine it as spectacular, overwhelming, or grand. City Л. is a city in the Kostanay region where Zhannar dreamed of going for 19 years (and finally did).
"I seek interest in the ordinary. The automatism of routine and stereotypical behavior disappears if we invent new forms of interaction. Through unfamiliarity, discomfort, through performances. Through such alternative activities, a typical city gains a new history."
