The festival also features a number of weird and wonderful structures including this giant triumphal arch on the border between the forest and an empty field. The arch walls contain thousands of small traps for sunlight
The park and its space allow for much more opportunity than in an urban context.
Festival curator Anton Kochurkin said: 'The festival got a new quality level and is ready to outgrow the annual format.
'Here, on the ground, only useful things take root, the things which are necessary for this place and for the people who protect the place and master it gradually.
'On the territory of 'Archstoyanie' there remain objects in accordance to the spatial idea of the Park.
'Of course, art has no practical value but the task that we are working on is to extend the chain where the peace of art becomes irreplaceable, connected with the processes which take place on the area.'
