Sketch of the Mosaic Panel 'Symphony of Labor' for the Design of the Exterior of a Building on the Brest Litovsk Highway in Kyiv 1968

Valerii Lamakh's "Sketch of the Mosaic Panel 'Symphony of Labor' for the Design of the Exterior of a Building on the Brest Litovsk Highway in Kyiv" (1968) is a vibrant sketch for a monumental mosaic. The composition features stylized figures engaged in various activities, reflecting the theme of labor. Lamakh's use of bold lines and geometric shapes, reminiscent of the Soviet Constructivist style, creates a dynamic and engaging visual experience. The sketch suggests a rich color palette, typical of Soviet-era public art, which would have adorned a building in Kyiv.
