Inner Spire

One night in December 2010, a Moscow audience gathered to witness these three men as they worked in concert to raise a monument. Like the world's great devotional edifices their spire of sound reaches skyward, and like all spires everywhere it is intended as a probe into the heavens, a beacon and a call, an antenna. Like so many towers, theirs is equipped with a lightning rod to steal electricity from the sky and bury it in the earth. They are harnessing natural forces, bringing the skies closer.
