КУРОРТ means resort and is a metaphor, although at the same time a real object built on the island of Sal in 1990 by Soviet airlines Areoflot. Until 2010, the airlines used the hotel not only for tourist purposes, but also locating the crew of their aircraft flying on the Moscow-Buenos Aires route. This place was ideal to isolate the crew and prevent potential escape. When the lines abanded the hotel in 2010, it begins to deteriorate. After a few years new residents appear in it. They are refugees mostly from Africa who settle in a building creating a kind of enclave avoided by tourists and locals, considered a dangerous place, although for them it is the only house they have.
Russian resort is my tale of isolation, realized over two years. Isolation leading to exclusion. This is a picture of our modern ostracism.
