The city of Skopje is suffocating under the rapid expansion of concrete walls. As if some evil spells have been thrown upon it, aiming to suffocate and again seal the seven vital roots of the city. And the seven roads leading to the depths of the soul of Skopje are to be once again untaken.
The Face of the City is a portrait of the urban chaos in Skopje, built upon fragments of the city. The portrait has been set in a profile, with an opened mouth and is symbolising the face of Skopje. The mouth is screaming in pain and despair resulting from the uncreative interventions in the city.
