Sculptures inscribed in the desert landscape of Yellowstone Reserve.

RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) does not get tired to identify heroes and award the best projects of modern architecture. A couple of years ago another nomination of the RIBA International Prize was added to the solid list of awards. The British stated that I would consider the whole layer of modern architecture, regardless of typology and geography.

A series of objects graced Yellowstone Park (American National Reserve, covering the territory of Wyoming, Idaho and Montana), which is famous for its numerous geysers and unique nature. The Beartooth and Inverted portal sculptures, standing in the middle of a desert freakish landscape, resemble in shape the opened doors of a giant shell or a broken shell. Large-scale objects that are several times the height of a man’s height are entirely made of organic materials.
