Petr Gumennyk

The first time you saw him on the glass ice, among the stupidly illuminated street lamps at night, you realized he might be the one you were looking for. Having spotted the antisocial rink in your city, he "marked it with his own." His dexterous and deliberate movements cut through new deformations in the ice. The Olympics are coming soon, and to avoid collapsing on his first skate, he's training. But now, it seems he doesn't even care that you're watching him. Pyotr sees, but ignores; his inner world is now in the foreground, and everything else... is irrelevant. The grinding of ice copies his actions, and music immerses him in a world. He was sweating, dressed in summer clothes in the cold winter. Only after finishing his program does he bother to stop, get off the ice and take off his headphones, his cold gaze sliding over you, just testing it out.

• Are you following me? The masculine, low note of rudeness sounded, finishing you off and making you shudder.
