The story
Zerkalo Market took over a whole house for a day: the gallery, the café with its swing, the tea room, the living room, the bar, the stairs and a courtyard lined with clothing rails. Every room had its tables and every table had its maker, with ceramics, prints, vintage, knitwear, books, jewellery, cosmetics, tattoos and tarot.
In the evening the music moved outside, to the DJs by the fire.
Shkya at the round table
The big round table by the piano went to Shkya.
Shkya is a meme project known across Russia and the wider Slavic internet. For one day its people sat at their own table in the house, with their merch, and met the people who follow them online.
