Production of labradorite paving tiles and stones for the "Heart of Ukraine" art object in the Cherkasy region.
The art object "Heart of Ukraine" is located at the point corresponding to the geographical center of Ukraine (49°01′39″ N. 31°28′58″ S.).
It is a rounded platform with a diameter of 25.5 meters, around the circumference of which there are monumental sculptures of wings. Each pair of wings symbolizes a region of Ukraine (24 units in total). The host region (Cherkasy region) is represented by a gnomon in the middle. A drawing made of paving stones (labradorite) is based on the use of embedded graphic details as signs of a sundial. Under the glass in the center of the composition there is a "lens" under which the symbolic heart of the country is placed on a black background.
