Our project The (Northern Fox / Північний Лис) Cable Car suggests the existance of a Cable Car, connecting the cities of Lysychansk (means Fox Town) and Severodonetsk (means Northern Donetsk).

 

This narrative was introduced using a wide spred of media channels:
> Billboards: by direct intervention into the public space, renting billboards in Severodonetsk and Lysychansk, showing visualizations of well know locations with a cable car mounted in.

> Logo:
a logo for the cable car was created and stickers produced and distributed in the 2 cities.
> Fictional Video: a short video (The Cable Car) was produced, telling the story of a young man using the cable car.

> Documentary Videos: 3 short (fictional) documentaries, showing video interviews with Viacheslav Tkachuk, the Mayor of Severodonetsk, Levon Azizian, a hobby hostorian and Olha Ursol, cultural activist in Severodonetsk, all talking about aspects of the cable car.
