Honestly i used to love to watch mystery shows based in the 18-19th century like the alienist,,, but it's also scary and i can't handle scary stuff :')

A look at the Constructivism in Concept skins

Long post warning. And please fell free to corect me, if I'm wrong about anything.

So these skin line's aesthetic, and basis draws heavily from the Constructivism movement.

The Constructivism was an art movement that started in the 1913 by by Soviet painter and architect Vladimir Tatlin. The art movement was a rejection of the idea of autonomous art. It was in favour of art as a practice for social purposes. The Constructivism movement had a great effect on modern art movements during the 20th century, two of the movement that it had a major influenc on was the Bauhaus, and the De Stijl movements.

Here are a few art works from it:

Monument to commemorate the Third International by Vladimir Tatlin, from 1919 - 1920.

Illustration to "For the voice" by Vladimir Mayakovsky by El Lissitzky, from 1920.

Proun by El Lissitzky, from 1923.

Now that we know what Constructivism is let's look at the skins from the skin line.

1. Eternity - A Visit to the Arctic

Eternity's skin probably is based on the Arktika, a retired nuclier powerd icebreaker. It was one of the first surface ships to reach the North Pole. The writing on the splash art roughly translates to "Glory to the hero of the Arctic with a boundless thirst for knowlge!", but take this with a grain of salt, dou to I used imige translation.

2. Baby blue - On the Sparrow Hills

Baby blue is wearing a traditional Russian ethnic costume called Sarafan. And the Sparrow Hills is a hill in Moscow. For a time it was called "Lenin Hills".

3. Oliver Fog - See you at the workers' Club

So this garment is probaby based on, or refrences to the 8 hour working regulations. Basicly after the October Revolutin, the decree " Decree on the Hours of Laber" was published, which decreesed the working hours to 8 hours for all professions. This or it's a refrenc to the 1912 UK miners strike. But I would say it's probably the first one.

4. Medicine Pocket - The Cosmos Photographer

Last but not least. The gesture is a tribute Marie Salomea Skłodowska-Curie, Polish physicist and chemist, and the first woman to win a Noble prize. The building in the background is probably the bulding of the Russian Academy of Sciences, which made contributions to the Soviet space program. The wheat is probably a refrence to Nikolai Ivanovich Vavilov, a Russian agronomist, botanist, and geneticist, who identified the centers of origin of cultivated plants. The apple tree is posibly a refrenc to Ivan Vladimirovich Michurin, a Russian practitioner of selection to produce new types of crop plants, and was one of the founding fathers of scientific agricultural selection.

Just found you can zoom even closer in the wilderness...

This the closest I can get to observing my little creatures under a microscope

It would be absolutely wild if they could interact with each other but so far I am having a great night just looking at them move around

I really want Barbara and A knight but I don't know if I could with my luck 😭

regarding the story of oliver

so i think oliver fog's anecdote may have unexpectedly become one of my favourites and managed to get me emotionally invested ... so i'd like to talk about a certain aspect of it in more depth

a knight and oliver fog's dynamic definitely was what captivated me the most; through that anecdote we got to watch the progression of the way they interacted with each other, though they may have gotten off on the wrong foot and had a few misunderstandings, they grew to develop true respect for each other, but what makes it unique is the way they BOTH see their respective pasts in each other. it's a mixed bag of memories for them both, yet somehow it ended up becoming a basis for an actually positive bond

oliver already had a rather negative impression of a knight from the start. and the fact that a knight made a joke that directly reminded oliver of his own father--whom oliver wasn't exactly fond of--didn't exactly help make things better between them. however, the experience they had in the forest (which i will touch on more in later paragraphs) certainly improved things, enabling them both to warm up to each other

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY a knight's final gesture toward him, putting his hand on oliver's shoulder to comfort him, is something i find very remarkable, and also symbolic of their development. that was, again, something that directly reminded oliver of his father, but oliver doesn't despise it this time, especially since this happened right after a knight had protected him and given him courage. knight had given oliver a reason to think highly of him. aside from that, he also got oliver to look at life (and death) through a new perspective. a knight could be the more ... positive paternal figure that oliver needed, and with time oliver's perspective on him can definitely shift from "he's just like my father (derogatory)" to "he's just like my father (affectionate)"

now onto a knight's side of things. he never wanted to cause oliver any trouble, and not only felt remorseful, but also had a protective instinct toward him. but most importantly he saw traits of his very own best friend and companion in oliver fog. an interesting but somewhat melancholic basis for a new friendship ...

AND THEN there's the fight scene, the moment where they were surrounded by critters in the forest. while that wasn't exactly something a knight would consider as a severe threat, seeing how swiftly he dealt with it, it sure did serve as a reminder of the roncevaux pass battle where he had died. surrounded by foes, standing side-by-side with an oliver. and again, while this isn't such a severe battle for a knight, to the rather combat-inexperienced oliver fog, this fight could as well have been his "roncevaux pass". there is also the fact that the overwhelming amount of critters reminded oliver of his own fog-related trauma. it's thanks to a knight's steadfastness and combat skills that they ultimately got out of it. a battle that didn't turn out so hopeless this time. a battle in which a knight was able to save someone else

a knight becoming a truly reliable person and offering hope to others, as demonstrated in this anecdote, is a testament to his growth. he was, after all, more reckless and troublesome during his lifetime, but the oliver of a knight's time had helped him grow as a person, and a knight acknowledged this thoroughly. his oliver had always been there for him and acted as his voice of reason, so now it's a knight's turn to be a steadfast and reliable figure to someone else; in this case a younger person to whom he can impart his wisdom and life experiences. in turn, a knight can learn a thing or two from oliver fog as well (and he did!)

i think a knight has become someone whom his oliver would have truly been proud of. there is this statement he made about how oliver will never truly die, which i take to mean as 1) the past oliver's spirit essentially living on through oliver fog and 2) a knight eternally preserving this oliver in his memories all throughout his new life. between the two of them he is the only one who is granted such a chance, after all. death and time may have parted them but memories allow oliver to continue to live on, in a way. either way it's ultimately a nice sentiment, a little bittersweet but a wonderful testament to his appreciation and love for what was once an important part of his past

in conclusion i find them to be an excellent duo. the interaction they had in the anecdote gave them even more depth as characters, as it enabled them to explore the way they think of the past, their personal pasts, and acknowledge the way those pasts define them as they are now. as well as the way they both got to experience something that mirrored both of their respective past experiences, and ended the interaction on a positive note. i am so glad they found each other

P.S.: if oliver fog somehow were to meet the oliver from knight's past, his father figure count would increase by 1. i'm just saying
