"Untitled," a 2022 work by Ukrainian artist Alevtyna Kakhidze, is a simple drawing in white chalk on black paper. The drawing depicts a figure in a suit lying on the ground with a string attached to its arm, the string reaching up to a head that appears to be floating above. Written around the figures are words in Russian. The work references the legacy of Vladimir Lenin, the leader of the Russian Revolution, and the changing landscape of Russian history.
