About the project (provided by the applicant)
The panopticon is a model of the ideal control system, where a person is constantly under observation. In Nikola-Lenivets, such meanings are traditionally turned upside down: this time, an anti-panopticon was built, where everyone can choose their own role while remaining themselves.
Correction is voluntary and collective: anyone can enter, sit in front of one of the mirrors, and be alone with their reflection. From the other side, anyone passing by can observe (or choose not to observe) the person sitting inside.
