Student of Art and Design School Arranges Contemporary Art Fair at 'Sevkabel Port'
In the second half of April, there was one of the largest fairs of contemporary art in St Petersburg—Port Art Fair. Designing its construction at 'Sevkabel Port' was the responsibility of Eva Chernykh, student of the Bachelor's programme 'Design'.
Port Art Fair is an annual fair aimed to support contemporary art and bring artists together. It allows independent artists and galleries to display and sell their art.
For Eva Chernykh, it is not the first cooperation with the project 'Port Art Fair': last year, the student engaged in zoning the fair, and this time, she worked on the design of the whole scene.

I had to create a functional and eye-catching space with its own character as well as stick to the budget and take into account all technical peculiarities: light and electronics. It is a very interesting and new experience. Apart from designing, I had a chance to spend a couple of days at the construction site which is also extremely valuable. The reality makes its own adjustments, and you have to make some decisions on the spot.
