With certificate signed by the artist // The Flying #3 by Ilja Kabakov, created in 2006, is a tapestry that merges surrealism with social commentary, portraying a group of people in various states of floating or suspended animation above a cityscape. The sepia tones give the piece a nostalgic, almost dreamlike quality, while the figures appear engaged in mundane activities—reading, conversing, or observing—yet they are detached from the ground and conventional settings. The tapestry features an assortment of objects and settings floating in an impossible space, creating a sense of dislocation and fantasy. Kabakov’s work often reflects on themes of escape, isolation, and the human psyche, and this piece challenges viewers to reflect on the absurdity and complexity of everyday life through a surreal lens.
