100 YEARS OF DECAY

"100 YEARS OF DECAY" is a gum glued to the filter of a cigarette, when blurred, this composition begins to resemble a "mushroom" arising from a nuclear explosion. This is the main goal - to draw an analogy between the consequences. The topic of ecology is more relevant than ever.
The concept consists in exaggeration - how something small and harmless, at first glance, can turn out to be something significant and dangerous not only for one person, but also for humanity. According to various sources, in hot or rather warm climates, gum can decompose on the ground for about 30 years. In cold climates, even more - about a century. The cigarette filter takes 5 to 15 years to decompose. The recovery of soil after nuclear explosions, depending on the power and type of charge, takes about 100-200 years before the radiation level becomes more or less acceptable. Thus, this triptych is a metaphor for our unconscious reality, in which people ignore what cannot be ignored.
