Post-Soviet Playgrounds

This LoRA is dedicated to our childhood, which can never be brought back.

Safety also left a lot to be desired. Protruding bolts, sharp corners and rust became part of the playground experience, requiring children to be dexterous and cautious.

These playgrounds often featured rusty swings, concrete slides, merry-go-rounds and strange abstract shapes that could represent rockets, animals or something completely unrecognisable. Intended as symbols of progress and creation, these structures often looked intimidating or strange. Originally painted in bright colours, over time they faded and took on a sullen appearance, adding to the post-apocalyptic atmosphere of the yards.

Despite this, playgrounds became the centre of backyard life and their simplicity and accessibility encouraged children's ingenuity.

Today, these "ugly" playgrounds evoke nostalgia in those who grew up on them. They have become a nostalgy and cultural heritage, a reminder of the past and of a time when courtyards were a place for socialising and not just a space between houses.

A melancholic analog close-up photo of a young russian blonde woman wearing a 80s sport track suit. She is posing in the Soviet-era playground featuring a set of simple metal swings, their frames painted in faded blue and pink, standing slightly uneven on a grassy patch scattered with fallen autumn leaves. The swings are rusted and weathered, their seats made of metal or wood, showing signs of age and neglect. The surrounding area is lined with trees whose yellowing leaves indicate early fall, adding a touch of warmth to the otherwise subdued atmosphere. In the background, a parked vaz-2106 car and a typical Soviet apartment panel building with a pale facade and mismatched balconies provide a residential context. The lighting is soft and natural, diffused through the overcast sky, creating a calm and slightly melancholic mood.
