As a case study, Filipp Groubnov’s multimedia installation artwork POCHVA (2018) is analyzed in relation to media scholar Jens Ruchatz’s concept of media as trace and externalization of memory. The research aims, through an analysis of the artwork, to reveal nuances in Ruchatz’s observations in the field of cultural memory and media. The results include that through the ways trees and microorganisms are incorporated, the installation reenacts the interconnectedness of beings in the nature instead of serving as optical proof for the memories.Show less
